Are you thinking of something that you plug into the PCIe port, and then it gives you say 2x PCIe 8x ports instead of 1x PCIe 16x?

well i would like to find a pcie card that then breaks down to 4 mPCIE slots (as far as i can tell all mPCIE slots are x1). there are some nice devices you can get for mPCIE you just cant get for a desktop. that's basically what im after but i really only need two mPCIE slots.
the other thought i had was taking 3 flexible x16 pcie cables and splicing them together. i would then need to add a power cable to the pcie cable for more power, still not sure if the two devices would require the extra power. i do recall seeing sometime ago a mPCIE card to pcie card but can no longer find it, logicsupply use to have one but it is gone now.
