- Enable GT Quad Selection
- When selected, this parameter enables you to select the different GT Quads available for a PCIe block.
- GT Quad
- This drop-down menu lists all the available GT quads for a given PCIe block. Note that depending on the GT Quad selected, the Maximum link width that can be configured for that particular quad will change.
- Core Clock Frequency
- This parameter allows you to select the core clock
frequencies.
For Gen3 link speed:
- For a -1, -2 and -3 speed grade and an x8 link width, the values of 250 MHz and 500 MHz are available for selection
- For a -2L, -2LV, -1L and -1LV speed grade and an x8 link width, this parameter defaults to 250 MHz and is not available for selection.
- For x16 link widths, the value of this parameter defaults to 500 MHz and is not available for selection.
- For x1,x2 and x4 link widths, this parameter defaults to 250 MHz and is not available for selection.
For Gen1 and Gen2 link speeds:
- For link widths other than x8, this parameter defaults to 250 MHz and is not available for selection.
- For x8 link widths, this parameter defaults to 500 MHz and is not available for selection.
- Enable Parity
- Enables Parity on TX/RX interfaces including MSI-X.
- PCIe DRP Ports
- When checked, enables the PCIe DRP interface. This interface allow user to change PCIe IP attributes, however, should not be used without direction from AMD Technical Support team.
- GT Channel DRP
- When checked, enables the GT channel DRP interface.
