This board doesn't use an NF200 chip, the 4 PCIe 16x slots are 16x-nc-16x-nc or 8x-8x-8x-8x, or similar. Early versions of the board did have a PLX bridge chip, but that doesn't seem to be on the final production version. Presumably both the USB3 and SATA 6G contollers each use a 1x PCIe 2.0 lane, and the PCIe 4x slot comes from the southbridge. They've also dropped the Marvell NIC in favour of an Intel one.
lovin the razzle dazzle colour scheme.
