Radeon RX 7900 XT could be the first consumer graphics card to support PCIe 5.0

It looks like AMD is going to move its upcoming processors and graphics cards to the most modern standards. According to reports, the Ryzen 7000 processors will exclusively support DDR5, and will also receive support for PCIe 5.0. Now it is reported that the Radeon RX 7000 3D cards will be the first consumer solutions to support PCIe 5.0.

At least such support is attributed to the top GPU Navi 31, which will form the basis of the Radeon RX 7900 XT video card, but it is unlikely that AMD will provide PCIe 5.0 support to the older GPU and will not do this to the younger ones. Moreover, the new interface will also have a new generation of CPUs.

Recall that PCIe 5.0 provides a throughput of 128 GB / s. At the same time, PCIe 4.0 is unlikely to be enough for new video cards, even taking into account the fact that they are credited with tremendous performance.
