I have a server card coming that I'll need to work with, it requires x8+x8 bifurcation as it's two separate devices, x8 each, on a single card, but in a single x16 slot. I know this board does bifurcation for the 2nd GPU slot (8x/8x bifurcation), but will it do split bifurcation in the first slot? There is an x8/x8 bifurcation option in the UEFI setup.

Gigabyte's support said "it does", but I have a feeling they might have just given me the standard answer from the BIOS/UEFI setup manual. Can anyone confirm that x8/x8 will split the first slot for a dual device on a card?
