The PCI Express, or PCIe, remains a crucial part of computing devices. PCIe, which stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect Express, is one of the two main interconnects that allows you to connect various peripherals including GPUs, SSDs, capture cards, and more to your computing device. The preliminary specification of PCIe 5.0 was announced in 2017, but it was formally announced in May 2019.
The short of it is that bandwidth and throughput basically doubles, and that PCIe 4 peripherals will work in PCIe 5 slots. New peripherals though will be very pricey in the short term. So advice if you're buying a new motherboard there is no need to avoid PCIe 5 if you still want to bring over your older graphics card, etc. You may just want to wait for prices of PCIe 5 peripherals to drop a bit before buying them.
