Chapter 2: BIOS information 2-21
PCI Express x16_2 slot (Black) bandwidth [2, 0, 1, 1 x2 Mode]
[Auto] The PCIe x16_2 slot runs at x4/x2 mode for system resource
optimization.

(PCIe X1_2 slot will be disabled.)
[2,0,1,1 x2 Mode] The PCIe x16_2 slot runs at x2 mode with all slots enabled.
The PCIe x1 slots share the bandwidth with the PCIe x16_2 slot. Due to the CrossFireX™
limitation, DO NOT use the PCIe x1 slots when you install two CrossFireX™ graphics cards
on both the PCIe x16 slots to set up a CrossFireX™ conguration. To disable the PCIe x1
slot, refer to the Onboard Devices Conguration section in the BIOS for details.
