X58 MOBO they do NOT borrow; the P6X58D Premium does not.

Jaquith,
Thanks.
Just wondering: I was reading a review of this mobo at benchmarkreviews.com, and they said it DOES borrows from PCI-E lanes.
Later on, someone said that X58 has 36 PCI-E, 32 of them being reserved for graphics. Theoretically, the remaining 4 lanes would be enough for USB3 and SATA III, but someone said those remaining 4 lanes are reserved for ICH10R.
To make sure I got your point: somehow USB3/SATAIII controller share the lanes with ICH10R, right?
Thanks again,
Galta
