Expansion & Storage

Expansion slots

1 x PCI Express x16 slot (PCIEX16), integrated in the CPU:
AMD Ryzen 9000/7000 Series Processors support PCIe 5.0 x16 mode
The M2B_CPU and M2C_CPU connectors share bandwidth with the PCIEX16 slot.
When the M2B_CPU or M2C_CPU connector is populated, the PCIEX16 slot operates at up to x8 mode.
AMD Ryzen 8000 Series-Phoenix 1 Processors support PCIe 4.0 x8 mode
AMD Ryzen 8000 Series-Phoenix 2 Processors support PCIe 4.0 x4 mode
(The PCIEX16 slot can only support a graphics card or an NVMe SSD. If only one graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16 slot.)
