Not only that RJ45 is a dead end road. There literally is nothing beyond 10gbit. 25, 40, 100 and 400 are all only fiber. and you can bend current fiber pretty damn well. Sure it needs a looser bent curve than cat5/6 for that matter but it's far from horrible. But yes a lot less power is needed for fiber connections.
This is it, fiber is the future look it how you look it!

V2 is already using AQC113, it can do 10G on PCIE4x1.



I am not sure why Asus made a V3. In fact, they never listed V2 on their website.



AQC113 can do Gen4x1 10G. So long your X570 has physically open ended Gen4x1 slot, Gigabyte and Asus NIC works for you.

I already have the V2 from ASUS with a 10G TrendNet switch
My X570 has no free PCIe lanes so only using the 2.5G which is integrated on it.
Next month I will have the ASUS X870E ProArt which gives me 10G to my main rig
