I just found this Intel document for 12th Gen!

I was looking up what Intel defines Tau as just to get a better sense of what should be expected performance as there has been a lot of concern regarding if the thermal solution is actually capable of sustaining 60W. Anyways, I’m not fully convinced so I went hunting on the interwebs and found this neat document! Haven’t looked at it really but it seemed neat so I thought I would share it here!

Just started reading but based off one of the diagrams present on the first page, it turns out there are more PCIe lanes present of the chipset that could be used if Framework ever decides to use them.
