" rel="nofollow - Looking to enhance my existing setup based on the EP2C602-4L/D16 motherboard. Does this board and the C602 chipset support PCI-Bifurcation? I would like to add a PCIe x8 -> 4x NVME card to this system.

I couldn't find anything in the datasheet @ https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/c600-series-chipset-datasheet.html

Thanks in advance
