Going forward, I think the creators of Pci Express need to seriously consider abandoning it instead of updating it, for a faster interlink between GPU and CPU, like Nvidia is trying to do with NVLink. It really needs to happen by someone OTHER than a GPU designer to make it unilateral though.
IMB is the single biggest benefactor of NVlink of the four founders of Pci Express. If that kind of thing is to go mainstream on consumer MBs though, it really needs to be backed by both Intel and AMD, the latter of which is unlikely with Nvidia at the helm.
So right now I'd like to see Intel and IMB get together and come up with a successor to Pci Ex. If that happens I'm sure Dell and HP will jump on board.
Isn't the bandwidth gain from PCIe 2.0 x16 to PCIe 3.0 x16 already shown to be largely useless? Why do we need to toss anything out?
