Hello everyone,
I got this wonderful MB and love it. However, I was stuck at the part where inserting M2 I to slot 1 and 2 and it didn’t even recognize it. I use 11th gen.
I could use both at DIMM 2 slots which shared with Sata.
Until I found someone post saying that I should go to Bios and configure CPU from advanced tab. I went ahead and did just that PCIEx16-1 - NVME M2.1 - NVME M2.2. Now, bot slot works. Standard, it was configured so that both PCIE x16 slot 1 and 2 were both full x16. It turned out that the Slot 2 of PCIE x16 is shared with the NVME which is x4 lanes. Therefore, if you are configuring things this way
your PCIE 1 will be full X16 band, and the slot 2 will be 8x8 band, which split into 4x4 for the 2 M2 slots. Basically, your Slot 2 is now PCIE X8
what that means ? Is that if you have GPU and want to take advantages of X16. You put it on the PCIE Slot 1.
