The epycd8-2t also does x8/x8 and x4/x4/x4/x4, giving a possible 11 Pcie x8 fully connected to CPU! Or 24 x4 if you include the 2 m.2 connectors. Combined with a 100 gbit nic it'd move data faster than throwing a drive down the hall. :woot:
Yes, contact them and they'll sell it to you.

For those seeking to have x8/x8 bifurcation on the ASRock X399 Taichi, you'll need a custom BIOS L3.51.
Contact me if you want it, not sure if I can share it publicly. Thanks ASRock!
I got that info here from the first post, as I'm also about to buy that board and would need x8x8 on one slot:

Could you contact ASRock about this? As far as I've seen they've been providing custom BIOS to people...
I thought x8x8 was supported since BIOS 2.00c, what bios are you on? Can you go back to 2.00c and see if it's in the list (if you are on a newer bios)?
The splitter should be all you need.
Wouldn't an active riser with PLX chip always be better than using bifurcation? (besides higher cost that is).
I'm interested in using for example RSC-R2UG-A2E16-A as earlier mentioned here, for compute purposes where the bandwidth between the GPU's is an important factor.
Would you recommend...
