Hello, I'm pretty much searching information towards this particular motherboard, and I was wondering if there's the possibility that the pci express 16x gen5 that's normally used for the gpu is shared with the m.2 slow gen 5 that's above it, and if that's the case will that hinder the performance of the gpu ?

Not sure if the rest of the m.2 slots will also be a hinder toward the gpu slot performance as well, it would be nice to know, because the other option I have in mind is the x670e steel legends but gotta be honest the esthetics well...

Hopefully someone can help me out with my doubts and give some feedback about this concern I'm having.
 
Did you look in the manual?

Page 5 shows the block diagram which represents what runs what on PC.
Those two slots you mentioned are supported by the CPU but I don't think they are joined in any significant way apart from maybe sharing a controller (which is the CPU)
The other M.2 slots are controlled by the chipset on the motherboard. They shouldn't play any part in gpu performance

I was actually unsure, i did checked the manual yeah, but I think I rather ask someone that actually knows more than just assume something.
Thanks for clarifying though
