The PCI-E 4.0 standard was officially released in October last year, and the transfer rate doubled to 16GT/s again, providing up to 64GB/s of bandwidth in PCI-E 4.0 x16 mode.
just now, The first PCI-E 4.0-capable graphics card is quietly approaching. It is the AMD 7nm new Vega 20, a Linux graphics driver confirms this.
Vega 20 core is known for a professional graphics product Radeon Pro Vega 20, for high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, deep network learning, etc., is expected to carry 16/32GB HBM2 video memory, stream processor or 4096, but the core process upgrade to 7nm, Transistor density doubled, energy efficiency doubled, performance increased by 35%, released later this year.
Interestingly, Vega 20 showed support for PCI-E 4.0 when it was first exposed in September last year.
In addition, AMD’s upcoming 7nm Zen 2 EPYC (codenamed Rome), the next-generation server platform, will also support PCI-E 4.0, apparently to be combined with the Vega 20 computing card to form a more powerful computing platform.
Interestingly, Samsung recently released an NF1 interface 8TB SSD, also supports PCI-E 4.0.
