PCI Bifurcation Question

[The Armed Chimpanze]

Hey all,

For this particular build I'm looking for a board with 2 PCI X 16 slots, one working in 8x8 and the other in standard x16. I would appreciate the smallest possible form factor board but any suggestions are welcome.

I have a fairly limited understanding of Bifurcation to be honest. I know what it does and whats its used for but there seems to be a lot of thing I need to take into account such as needing a certain BIOS to support it and whatnot.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I might be helpful to the Toms community is you explained what the heck Bifurcation is ?

He means the way the lanes are split up. Basically any SLI capable board will do what you're asking as sli requires the gpus to be at 8x or it can't run
