Ada Lovelace should abandon PCI Express 5

The next generation of graphics cards will eventually not use PCI Express 5.0. A logical choice given the limited support for this technology.

Months go by and the next generation of screen cards Nvidia getting close. amp expired, GeForce RTX 4000 will use the new Ada Lovelace architecture Intended for the general public and more specifically for video games. This new generation promises to break new records in power and quickly made us forget about the GeForce RTX 3000s that were so hard to find for months.

The period is favorable for rumors and leaks. The latest on the transfer and power protocol that Nvidia uses.

PCI Express 4.0 is very important

According to Kopite7kimi, who is fairly popular when it comes to the following Nvidia products, the GeForce RTX 4000 should continue to use PCI Express 4.0. Since the launch of Alder Lake processors (12th generation Intel Core), Intel has run the all-new PCI Express 5.0 on its platform. This new interface promises up to 128 GB/s bandwidth versus 64 GB/s for PCI Express 4.0. this is Nvidia had advanced by revealing HopperThe first PCI Express 5.0 compliant GPU for professionals.

Unfortunately, PCI Express 5.0 is not supported by the AMD platform yet. That should be the case by the end of the year with the arrival of the Ryzen 7000 and the AM5 platform, but we can assume the level of adoption will be very low.

We can still imagine that the next GeForce RTX 4000 will support the ATX 3.0 / PCI Express 5.0 power interface. This is a new 16-pin connector that allows the graphics card to receive up to 600 watts of power from the computer’s power supply. If we believe the leaks about the RTX 4090, you’ll need it.
