You would need a dual CPU system. Skylake Xeons have 48x PCIe.
16x TB3 = 64x PCIe Lanes
2x GPU = 32x PCIe Lanes
2x M.2 = 8x PCIe Lanes
Chipset = 8x PCIe Lanes
Would be too much for even 2x Skylake Xeons. Maybe 10-12x TB3 ports.
- seanp2k2 10y agoYeah, you'd need to get into 7-series Xeons or whatever AMDs new Zen server chips are (not sure if they do 4-way or how many PCI-E lanes they have).
- chx 10y agoKaby Lake desktop have upped the number of PCIe lanes by 20% if the Xeons do the same then you just about have enough -- your list above is 112 lanes, 48*1.2=57.6 and so 56 is not unreasonable.
