Overview



Faster storage, graphics and networking capabilities
PCI Express® (PCIe®) 5.0 delivers 32 GT's bandwidth, which is twice the speed of PCIe 4.0, and offers lower power consumption, better land scalability and backwards compatibility. ASUS servers are PCIe 5.0 ready with scalability design to satisfy the increasing workloads for modern data centers.
