AMD MB MZ31-AR0 1xSP3

Both single- and dual-socket CPUs come equipped with 128x PCIe lanes, providing extensive I/O options. This is a huge improvement in I/O vs. incumbent x86 offerings. Increased I/O allows for flexibility in extending your storage, networking or compute to a level previously unattainable with standard server motherboards. In addition, the integrated nature of the processor - designed as a system-on-chip (SoC) - means that there is no need for a separate PCH and less additional switches needed for expansion lanes.
