Thanks. Appreciated.

Available PCI Express controllers configurations are:
PCIe1 PCIe2 PCIe3 PCIe4
x4 x4 x1 x1
x1 x1
x8
x4 x4
x4 x4 x4
x4
x2 x4 x2
x2 x2
x2 x2 x2
I think in that list they spared the configs
x4 x1 x1 and
x4 x2, which are part of the config table linked to before. But anyway, seems my 'dream config' of 15 lanes for PCIe (
x8 x4 x2 x1) is not possible on this processor, unfortunately. So as suited configurations we have config
x4 x4 x4 with 12 lanes for three ports (i.e. most lanes overall), config
x8 with 8 lanes for one port (i.e. most lanes per port) and config
x4 x4 x1 x1 with 10 lanes for four ports (i.e. most ports). Which of those would be your favourite on a board for our market?

Uses 2.0GHz versions of the P5020 (early versions may use slower speeds).
That's interesting as the announcement in June 2010 said 2.0 GHz initially and 2.2 GHz later.

Okay, as you said.

As expected.
