Hrm, i think you might, but not sure, don't have single PCIe 3.0 card.


What I can say, is that I have noticed differences in PCIe 2.0 cards in x8x8 vs x16x16, but it's hard to quantify for comparison purposes. I know 100% for sure, PCIe bandwidth matters with three cards, so I assume that hte same woudl translate over to faster cards on PCIe 3.0.

Sometimes, it's not aobut the overbandwdith needed, but the number of channels the cards communicate with each other, and how they link into the CPU that can matter.

Mind you, i've been saying the same thing for a couple of years now, and not many agree with me. OH well.


$1000 price tag seems a bit high, would have preferred if I could buy for that, tax included!
