With current and soon to be released hardware end of 2017, is it possible to using a raid card, ssd's to fully saturate a x16 3.0 slot?

Provided the data only goes between the cpu or gpu and not the network

Yes...ish, Linus will upload a video in 6 days time displaying how with current technology, it is possible for drives in a raid 0 fashion to almost saturate all the bandwidth of PCIe 3.0 16x :D 

Looking at my signature are we now? Well too bad there's nothing here...

I did find this  435.00 USD.

It seems to not have hardware raid but software only. if reading only samsung 960 pro Max 3,500 MB/sec *4  14000MB/sec

wiki x16 bandwith  

  • 15.75 GB/s (×16)

 

This is all an estimated guess
