pci-e lane width on socket 771
Many 771 socket motherboards are manufactured with links (i.e. x8) that do not match the expansion lane (i.e. x16). I am looking to build a xeon based workstation, and would like to take full advantage of an x16 link on an nVidia graphics card. Are more mainstream motherboards made with these half-lanes, too - what do you recommend for an 771 with x16 links?
