This is why the continuous recommendations for High End Desktop Processors
and Xeon E5, where this is not the case.  Just be aware that standard
Core-i3/5/7 are going to group all the processor root ports together, which
either limits your configurations or requires the acs override patch.  The
latter, I don't consider supportable.  There are plenty of usable
configurations available for Core processors, but for more than one
discrete GPU, you're going to need to use PCH-based root ports.
