Bottom line - Threadrippers below 3990x only have 64 PCIe lanes advertised and motherboards are designed for them.
3990x has 24 additional lanes advertised, but no motherboards have more than 64 wired up.
However you spin it, 3990x has more than any motherboard available today seems to be wired up for.
So to re-iterate - are there any motherboards coming with all of the PCIe lanes that 3990x offers wired up, ideally with the extra ones going to PCIe slots?
