PCIe 6.0 Spec Release Date on Track, Version 0.5 Announced | Tom's Hardware
With both AMD and Intel working on releasing PCI-E 5.0 full support late this year this would mean that PCI-E 6.0 and 6.0 supporting products will probably come out in 2023 or 2024. As the article said, 6.0 will exist this year but that doesn't mean that its coming out. Its just coming out to developers so that they can make products for it and the products will come at a later time.
Honestly, with how fast computing is evolving in the 2020's it wouldn't surprise me what would be coming out. Right now as of this moment we don't even have Intel processors supporting PCI-E 4.0 and they're releasing 5.0 compatible processors and products late this year. Just... amazing. I remember when PCI-E was first a thing, we had 1.0 and 2.0 for over a decade, now computers are evolving to where even the enthusiasts can't keep up with the new technology coming out. I personally, don't see the point in buying a 4.0 compatible processor when 5.0 is coming at the end of the year. I can replace my processor and motherboard at the end of the year or in early 2022, don't need to use PCI-E 4.0 for less than 8 months...
