cores: one 2 x16 core and two 5 x8 cores, for a total of 64
lanes. There are 8 configurable ports, which can be divided into 2 groups:
** Gfx-group: contains 2 x8 ports. Each port can be limited to lower link widths for applications that require fewer lanes. Additionally, the two ports can be combined to create a single x16 link.
** GPP-group: contains 1 x4
UMI and 5 General Purpose Ports (GPP).
All PCIe links are capable of supporting
PCIe 2.x data rates. In addition, the Gfx link is capable of supporting
PCIe 3.x data rate. The FP3 package supports two different voltage levels on the VDDP rail. At the 1.05 V nominal setting, the Gfx link can support
PCI Express 3.x data rate, while at the 0.95 V setting, the maximum data rate supported by the Gfx link is
PCI Express 2.x
