Intel Optane SSD 900p Makes a Secret Appearance - has PCI Express 4.0 interface

http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/intel-optane-ssd-900p-makes-a-secret-appearance-has-pci-express-4-interface.html
However as mentioned a while ago, there is something new on the horizon, the Intel Optane SSD 900p SSD which uses a PCIe 4.0 interface. News reaches us through our Dutch colleagues of HWI who noticed that 900p SSDs are on pre-order at Centralpoint with a release tomorrow.

 

That said, I'm not sure if it's real or a typo, because Anandtech mentions that it uses a PCIe 3.0 x4 interface (I haven't read Anandtech's review).

According to computerbase it was an error.

BTW also according to computerbase ACO scales well with up to 6 cores and 12 threads. Looking at their benchmarks it really seems to be CPU related.

Good to know... for both things.

I still think that maybe Intel and AMD will launch new mobos with PCIe 4.0. It's an easy way to make people upgrade and get extra revenue, and board partners won't complain either.

 

As for the new AC game, you've talked about how good it looks, but you haven't said how's the game. It's like every other AC or does it make changes that make it fresh?
