Oculink on PCIe Gen 5: K993G + R29Q

I picked up two items:

A dock and an Oculink card

https://www.adt.link/product/K993G.html

My hope was to double my max bandwidth on PCIe gen 4, which is currently 7.2 GB/s using a PCIe gen 5 card (5060) in a gen 4 dock attaching to a gen 4 Oculink port. I came close, but the results are still spectacular: 13.51 GB/s.

This can be immediately valuable to either SFF builders who don’t have an extra PCIe slot for their GPU or anyone who has found a mini computer or laptop with gen 5 SSD slots.

Use the poll to tell me if you found this experiment valuable to your forum. I will add pictures to the comments.
