Wonder if it still uses the NF200 it had when they showed it at Computex. The prototype at Computex had the first two slots labeled as Gen 3 (x16 and x4) and the rest at Gen 2. If that is an NF200 and it most likely is, then the first two slots are fixed x16 and x8 Gen 3, and the rest are from the switch at Gen 2.
