Ok, so right now I'm considering building new gaming rig in the next couple of months. I'd be getting a Ryzen 3rd gen with PCIe 4.0 support for a bit of futureproofing. But I just read that since the PCIe 5.0 spec just released this year, we might see PCIe 5.0 processors and motherboards as early as next year. If that's the case, I think it could be good for me to wait. I could save up more for a better system and then (theoretically) be better future-proofed for high end graphics and NVMe SSDs and whatever other peripherals might need. But if the tech won't be available until, say, summer 2021, I don't think it's worth it to wait that long. Or if PCIe 5.0 is liable to be prohibitively expensive (which doesn't seem likely since 4.0 isn't all that expensive).
What do you guys think? Has Intel or AMD said they're definitely releasing 5.0 support next year, or definitely not? Would you wait if you're ready now, why or why not?
