I had a fun one when I put an 8x card forking into two nvme drives in a mobo that i thought compatible. No matter what, only one of them connects. Turned out: - The 8x slot didn’t bifurcate at all - The secondary 16x slot could do up to 8x4x4. Which is the same as no bifurcation for an 8x card in that slot. - GPU only works in the primary slot
