I thought 7GB/s was the max, but you're right! Looks like I need to upgrade to PCIe 5.0!

- sitkack 2y agoPCIe 7 will blow our minds! At 512GB/s for an x16 link, that is 32GB/s x1. If SSDs stay with x4 links that is a physical layer throughput of 128GB/s. https://pcisig.com/blog/pcie%C2%AE-70-specification-version-05-now-available-full-draft-available-members https://pcisig.com/blog/pcie%C2%AE-70-specification-version-... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55NAeEwEqtQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55NAeEwEqtQ PCIe 6 is half of that, but we probably won't see anything in the consumer space until 2026 or 2027. That is probably two Ryzen releases from now. So really, Zen 7 ships for Christmas of 2028 along with PCIe 6 and we get x4 NVMe SSDs with 64GB/s of bandwidth.
