I'm trying to determine if this motherboard's bottom PCI-e slot runs at x16 speed or not.

The spec under Expansion Slots says:
The "supports x4 mode" is what is really throwing me off. Does that mean that's the highest speed in that slot or does it mean it runs at x4 when sharing bandwidth with M.2_3?

The spec under Expansion Slots says:
Quote:
1 x PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16 slot
AMD B650 Chipset
1 x PCIe 4.0/3.0 x16 slot (supports x4 mode)*
* PCIe 4.0 x16 slot (supports x4 mode) from AMD B650 Chipset shares bandwidth with M.2_3.
The "supports x4 mode" is what is really throwing me off. Does that mean that's the highest speed in that slot or does it mean it runs at x4 when sharing bandwidth with M.2_3?
