I've occupied both M2 slots with an NVME drive and the system has a video card in it.
What should I be getting for the gfx card? 16x right? Or is the pcie lane shared with the m2 drives?
That means 2x 4 lanes = 8 then only 8 left for the primary card, correct?
 
hope this isnt considered a necro
as far as i know the on board M.2 slots on Intel are connected to the chipset
so they shouldnt share pci-e lanes with the gpu unless you are not using the first pci-e slot for the gpu
and no, each M.2 might be connected to a x4 which makes you think they are x8 lanes
but the chipset lanes bandwidth is shared so its x4 total for both M.2
 
here's a thought.......
