PCIe 5.0 x8 has the same throughput as PCIe 4.0 x16, FWIW. So the x8/x8 configuration is very reasonable.

- elabajaba 3y agoSure, but outside of a few SSDs (that aren't worth buying currently, need to wait for the 2nd gen pcie 5 controllers to tame their power draw), what consumer (or enthusiast) hardware is actually using PCIe 5 right now? If you slot 2 4090s into those x8/x8 5.0 slots, they'll "only" run at x8/x8 4.0 speeds.
