I can confidently say we all can live with PCIe 4 connectivity for a good while, as long as there's a lot of it. PCIe 5 is not going to give tangible benefits anytime soon to the average user. I'd be even willing to say PCIe 3 over 4 doesn't even show that many improvements in GPU performance and even NVMe drive performance (using peak sustained reads is stupid as a single metric "show-off").

People loves to jump blindly to the latest trends without stopping to think if it makes sense to jump still. AMD giving the option to the AIBs how they control the segmentation a bit better is actually a good idea. That way we can all choose what we want based on the specs of each chipset/motherboard family. I guess the fine print here is the amount of total lanes each chipset will accommodate and the uplink to the CPU/SoC.

L1 tech on YouTube showed the gpu over pcie3 was slower than pcie4 im pretty sure. Theres probably more to it than i understand

You're not wrong. I guess I should clarify that a bit: PCIe3 vs PCIe4, when you're not hitting VRAM limits and the card doesn't need to move Gigabytes of data at a time, then the performance loss is minimal (5%?). PCIe 4 to 5 though, it is effectively and technically 0%, as there's no PCIe 5 cards yet to compare, lol. That being said, the "loss" will probably be at or under 5% again. Is that significant? Not to me at least.

Regards.

The subheading of the article has a typo.

"Gigabyte is brining four X670 motherboards to Computex"

Should be

"Gigabyte is bringing four X670 motherboards to Computex"

Are they "Brining them" to test for corrosion perhaps? 😏



Seriously though I am of course very interested in X670 and the next generation of Ryzen.
