I plan to use this server for a BeamMP server (BeamNG drive multiplayer), which requires significant single-core performance and from several locations. The 11600K motherboard suits well with 12th or 13th generation chips, priced around £200. Would you confirm if this chipset supports PCIE x16 expansion (splitting into smaller slots)?

They'll typically be clearly stated in the specifications. So probably not.
