Great news.

I can’t make use of more than 1.2GBps for sample streaming using PCI 3.0. Maybe PCI 5 will be around 2GBps with no noticable improvement in real world usage.

I wish they’d just fix the software we use instead of creating new benchmarks to sell to us.

Would the performance be noticeable in Datacenter and HPC platforms? Or is the software lagging there as well?

They most likely can make custom solutions, so yeah... Usefull in datacenters.
Most likely Linux will get real benefit from these before Windows in customer products... when those comes to the market.
