Chatgpt is correct here if you use an Intel w-2400 CPU, which has 64 pcie gen5 lanes, but if you use an Intel w-3400 CPU you get 112 gen5 lanes. If you’re just running pcie gen4, you might get more lanes but I’m not sure.
That said, if you’re just looking to run your gpus at full bandwidth and don’t need pcie gen5, you could go threadripper pro 3000 or 5000 series and a wrx80 motherboard for 128 pcie gen4 lanes.
Also the new threadripper and threadripper pro 7000 series is coming out on Nov21. Personally I’d get that over the Intel w-2400/3400 series.
