Folks, I'm using a 6900k in an Asrock X99 10g board.

I have two Titan X pascals inserted.
I also have a PCI-E adapter for a Samsung 950pro (since the m.2 slot onboard is not ultra)
I plan on adding a LSI-SAS9201 card as well.

My concern is that if I understand it correctly, I have 40PCI-E lanes. 32 of which are taken by the Titans.

4 lanes taken by the m.2 Samsung?
Leaving 4 lanes for the LSI card but the documentation (below) is confusing.
Am I going to gimp my m.2, my RAID card, my Titans, or will all run at full speed?

Solution
Yes. How do you think that the ethernet and SATA ports get data. Look at the articles on the X99 chipset and your motherboard manual for allocation of chipset PCIe lanes.
