Are you ready for your PC to communicate by light? Don’t hold your breath, unfortunately. But the possibility became more real as the PCI Express Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG) said today that it’s ...

We don't even have PCIe 5.0 across the board with all PC users and gamers, but PCIe 6.0 is coming with NVIDIA's new Blackwell B100, B200, and GB200 AI GPUs all ready for Gen6. AI workloads require ...

Add more speedy storage with those unused slots.

The PCI-SIG consortium announced PCIe 7.0 nearly four years ago and no products supporting it have come to market yet, but the standards body is going forward with the first draft of the PCIe 8.0 ...

MY system is a Dell Precision T5610, which I like very much, but doesn't have onboard nVME slots. No big deal, I got a PCIe adapter and put in an m.2 nVME drive into it. Works great (OS is win8.1) but ...

There are rumors of an Intel storage refresh coming this year, and ongoing research into PLC NAND. PCIe 4.0 support is also rumored to be happening in the not-too-distant future. Share on Facebook ...

Quirky but useful.

Why the need for PCI Express? As processor clock speeds increase, parallel buses such as PCI become harder to implement. Signal skew and fan-out restrictions restrict the bandwidth achievable on a ...

Things would go a whole lot better for server designs if we had a two year or better still a four year moratorium on adding faster compute engines to machines. That way, we could let memory subsystems ...

Just over two decades ago, the introduction of PCI Express 1.0 marked the industry’s transition from then-ubiquitous parallel to serial interfaces. Back in 2002, the potential of “PCIe” in automotive ...
