A whole lot of people in the business disagree and do feel it's time for PCIe 4.0. A commenter said: "Wolfenstein New Order takes substantial hits with a GTX 980 so, it would be worse with newer cards. There are major limits with anyone who uses more than a single GPU. If one were using a GPU...

Some at this forum are pretty set in the "My use case is the only use case" mentality. So for them the fact that GPUs don't currently use all of the bandwidth is all that matters - it's very myopic. PCs and x86-based servers use a lot of the same technology today, including PCI-E and if those...

It's been 7 years since PCI 3.0 came out in 2010. It's wayyy late. https://1.f.ix.de/imgs/18/1/8/7/2/7/5/0/pcie5-ca055f534ed0435e.png https://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/IDF-PCIe-4-0-laeuft-PCIe-5-0-in-Arbeit-3297114.html

[/quotemsg]A gtx 1080ti just about saturates pcie 2.0. Pci-e 4.0's bandwidth is only interesting for people wanting some super fast pci-e based storage.[/quotemsg] That is false - it's only true when one is using an older PCI 2.0 motherboard and Sata HD. When one is using an NVMe SSD and a...

I just read that if we want ... "4K video at 120Hz (or 240Hz) on a PC will require PCIe 4.0" How true is that comment? I'm hearing that with NVMe fast storage and VR, we will need PCIe 4.0 if we want true 4k gaming and VR at 120/144 fps, especially with 21:9 ultra-wide. Does using an NVMe SSD...

Does this also mean that my AMD 955 is finally optimized for Windows 10 too?

I hate white computers and gaming consoles but, a nice silver would be cool.

I was surprised the new HDMI 2.1 specs reaching 10k at up to 120fps and it's coming soon. Most gamers use DisplayPort anyway but, it's good to finally see HDMI catch-up at bit. * The physical connectors and cables look the same as today's * Improved bandwidth from 18Gbps (HDMI 2.0) to 48Gbps...

Why no mention of the version of DisplayPort and HDMI? I expected the new AM4 to have Display Port 1.4 and HDMI 2.0. I hope they have support for the latest NVMe specs.
