Yes. In general systems usually have PCIE version with bandwidth better than RAM of that system. For example a system with DDR4 (27Gbs) usually has at least PCIE4 (32Gbs at 16x). But you can bottleneck that by building a DDR5 (40Gbs) system

LLM speed is roughly <memory_bandwidth> / <model_size> tok/s. DDR4 tops out about 27Gbs DDR5 can do around 40Gbs So for 70B model at 8 bit quant, you will get around 0.3-0.5 tokens per second using RAM alone.
