The chipset uses multiple lanes to boost speed beyond its direct connection. By combining several DMI 4.0 lanes, it can achieve higher throughput than the single lane alone.

All PCs I own support gigabit+ ethernet, yet my internet speed is significantly reduced. The chipset functions mainly as a data switcher. Not all tasks run simultaneously, so unless you frequently access many devices at once, the connection won’t be severely restricted. Even under partial load, performance might drop slightly.

You seem to be viewing various measurements in different units, but they're actually shared across devices. No single device handles full bandwidth continuously; instead, they work together. DMI4.0 x8 at 15.75GBps and PCIe4.0x 20 at 40GBps.

You'd be restricted to a maximum throughput of around 128 GT/s or 16 GB/s depending on the configuration.

Approximately 16 GB/s is the bandwidth between the chipset and CPU. You might want to check for a motherboard with available connectors to achieve that. If you really need such high speeds, consider a HEDT or workstation setup with better connectivity options. For instance, I currently have four M.2 SSDs connected via an x16 slot, but I don’t use RAID 0.
