*1 Support PCIe bifurcation for RAID on CPU function.
*2 PCIe 3.0 x4 will be switched from Thunderbolt™ 3 to PCIEX16_3 if the slot is populated; by then Thunderbolt™ 3 will have no output.
*3 When M.2_1 is operating in SATA device, SATA6G_2 will be disabled.
*4 M.2_2 runs at PCIe 3.0 x2 by default and shares bandwidth with SATA6G_56. When M.2_2 runs at PCIe 3.0 x4 or is populated by H10, SATA6G_56 will be disabled.
*5 Please refer to the user manual for more details about DisplayPort input and Type-C output settings
*6 Intel® Xeon® W-1200 and non-K processors may not support some memory clocks including 3000, 3400, 4500, 4600 MHz
