Intel® Z590 Chipset

1 x PCIe 3.0 x16 slot (supports x4 mode)**

1 x PCIe 3.0 x1 slots

* Supports PCIe bandwidth bifurcation for RAID on CPU function.

**PCIEX16_3 shares bandwidth with SATA6G_12 and SATA6G_34. When PCIEX16_ 3 is populated SATA6G_12 and SATA6G_34 will be disbabled.
When PCIEX16_3 run at default (x2) mode, SATA6G_34 is disabled.
When PCIEX16_3 run at x4 mode, SATA6G_12 and SATA6G_34 are disabled.

Supports 4 x M.2 slots and 6 x SATA 6Gb/s ports
