## PCIe

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI\\_Express#History\\_and\\_revisions>

Per lane:

* Version 1.0a: 2.5 GT/s is 2.5 Gbps on the encoded serial link. This corresponds to 2.0 Gbps of pre-coded data or 250 MB/s
* Version 2.x : 5 GT/s = 500 MB/s
* Version 3.x : 8 GT/s \~= 1 GB/s | upgraded the encoding scheme to 128b/130b from the previous 8b/10b encoding
* Version 4.0 : 16 GT/s \~= 2 GB/s
