Recently (Jun 24, 2018) Linus Sebsation published a video where he shows the viewer a lot about his companies server infrastructure, reasonably late in the video he shows what kind of bandwidth they need for editing 8k video.

We've had a couple of 'exciting' months in terms of releases! Pinnacle Ridge and Raven Ridge have both been released into the wild along with Intel's reactive motherboard's (B360, H310 and H370) and CPUs (i5-8600).
