PCI-SIG which is the organization that designs the PCIe express standard has released a roadmap to the public showing off the blueprints for when the next PCIe standard will be upgraded.
From the above image we can see that the PCIe 4.0 standard will be coming to us later this year and will be featuring 16GT/s which is a huge upgrade from PCIe 3.0 @ 8GT/s
What is really impressive though is PCIe 5.0 which is literally 4x more powerful then PCIe 3.0. PCIe 5.0 will be able to move 128GB/s through the PCIe slot which is massive when compared to both 3.0 at 32GB/s and 4.0 at 64GB/s.

Hello! My name Jak Connor I’m based in Australia and I picked up PCgaming as child when I was around ten years old. I mostly played RTS games back then, putting many hours into Age of Empires 1/2 and Age of Mythology. My love for PC gaming grew and stayed with me as I now have a passion for gaming and the amazing technology jumps developers show us all the time. I pledge that I will be bringing you fine people of DSOgaming the most unique and interesting news I can find!
