Given I think even the highest end of SSD is only just touching 15GB/s and RAM about 100GB/s I think?

I do wonder how long it will be before we actually see these transfer speeds

    What happened to PCIe 6 and 7?

    Surely we should focus on deploying these to consumers before PCIe 8.

    How about you don't just double the bandwith for once?

    Better powersaving for once. Or no release if nothing new? Do they have a fixed timeline, a new version all 2 years or something?

    Remember that PCIe is not just for consumers. High speed networking, more bandwidth per lane so fewer lanes needed for the same performance. That's all pretty nice for the enterprise market. 8x PCIe 5 ist the same as 1x PCIe 8. That makes things a lot easier.
