The industry has been stuck on PCIe 3.0 for roughly seven years, and even though the first support for PCIe 4.0 on the desktop will land soon in AMD's third-gen Ryzen chips and the first PCIe 4.0 SSDs just cropped up, the industry is already adopting PCIe 5.0. The new standard doubles throughput over PCIe 4.0, yielding a data rate of 32 GT/s.

Today PCI-SIG, the organization that defines PCIe standards, announced that it ratified Version 0.9 of the PCI Express 5.0 specification, signaling that end devices will come to market in the near future. (Companies design end devices as early as revision 0.4 and often launch with 0.9.)

The PCI-SIG defines the specification, but it has no control over when the end devices make it to market. The PCI-SIG expects to ratify the final 1.0 revision in the first quarter of 2019, and the first PCIe 5.0 devices should debut this year. Broader availability should come in 2020.


PCIe 4.0 may be short-lived with a two year life if that. PCIe 5.0 looks to be here sooner than anyone thought - all depending on when manufacturers use it. Though, an expectation of later this year is good.

    What Another Thread on this Just Kidding the other Thread is from back in 2017.
    Hot Chips 2017: We'll See PCIe 4.0 This Year, PCIe 5.0 In 2019  (Tuesday, August 29, 2017 2:59 PM)
    It all means nothing until Motherboards and Graphics Cards support it. May after it is ratified at Version 1.0

    SSD drives can leverage PCI Express 4 speeds and there is no reason they cannot saturate PCI Express 5 speeds
     
    Ethernet can finally move from the ancient 1000BASE-T to 10GBASE-T at last
     
    PCI Express 5 can bump speeds up to 400 gigabit over fiber
