hey myro, what do you mean with linked?
using both pciE 16x slots? actually all x48 and x38 boards SHOULD run both of their pciE 16x slots at full 16 lanes even if both slots are used

foxconn P45 boards however are the only ones that support dual 16x pciE 2.0 since we use a PLX bridge chip.
Eveyrbody else is only doing 8/8 with 2 cards
