FWIW, I always prefer actual speeds, e.g., "8 GT/s", instead of things
like "Gen3", for the reason mentioned in the spec:

Terms like "PCIe Gen3" are ambiguous and should be avoided. For
example, "gen3" could mean (1) compliant with Base 3.0, (2)
compliant with Base 3.1 (last revision of 3.x), (3) compliant with
Base 3.0 and supporting 8.0 GT/s, (4) compliant with Base 3.0 or
later and supporting 8.0 GT/s, ....
