The 5.0 drives do get quite hot especially after long write periods id recommend getting one with a good cooling solution if your motherboard doesnt offer that
@@limitless-hardware1866 No, based on your testing results I've already concluded the performance increase is not worth the added price. I'm just finding more excuses to stick with PCI-E 4.0 :D
Is it true that the CPU+Chipset is made in such a way that when installing an ssd and a video card, the PCIe 5.0 lines are divided between the M.2 SSD PCIe 5.0 drive and the PCIe 5.0 x16 video, i.e. The videocard will no longer be x16, but x8?
@@limitless-hardware1866Thanks for the answer. Then here’s the question: on the gigabyte b650m aurus elite rev 1.3 board there are two slots for ssd m2, one is a pci 5.0 slot, the other is pci 4.0, if you connect two ssd m2 pci 4.0 to them, how will the video card work at 16x or 8x? Processor 7800x3d
yea..im rockin 3.0 nvme drives and they're plenty fast enough. tbh biggest thing these days is running out of PCIE lanes because cpu makers are limiting PCIE lanes
Looks like it’s probably going to be around double the price for the same amount of storage as pcie4 drives, as much as I would love to have them I don’t see the point, I need minimum 4TB, that’s around £500-£600 just on one 4TB or two 2TB drives alone. I can get two 4TB Samsung 990 pro for that
at this time this does not matter to me much, also its not that this is against any specific manufacturer, rather the same for all of them. and has been the case for a while now haha
Great video, straight to the point, only necessary information and fast, keep it up !
Thank you for sharing the loading time comparisons. Did you notice any thermal issues with PCI-E 5.0 controllers?

depends, when the CPU has less than 20 PCIE lanes, yes, this is true. Then the GPU will only run at 8x

Would be nice if there were 5.0 x1 ssds basically same speed as 3.0 x4 but theyll save lanes and you could use all yor slots and still have enough

Very true, but you won't get much appreciations as it goes against the marketing of manufacturers of those SSDs.
