The new generation of processors from Intel and AMD uses motherboards with a new standard PCIe 5.0, twice as fast as the previous one. And this makes both video cards and new ones grow in size. M.2 NVMe PCIe 5.0 SSDlike this japanese model CFD who wears sink huge.
In the world of iron, there is a principle that has been improved but not yet violated: more power equals more heat. D more heat signifies a great need for distraction.
The new generation of gaming PCs uses numerous technologies that require PC replacement: DDR5 memory, graphics cards and SSDs with the new PCI-e 5.0 connectivity.
All of these new technologies promise twice the performance of their predecessors… And twice as much.
New PCIe 5.0 SSDs and their bulky heatsinks
A few weeks ago, we published an analysis of the RTX 4090 card, which takes at least 4 slots in size, in some of its configurations.
Something similar will happen with M.2 SSD with technology PCIe 5.0. Forget the old M.2 which was like a credit card. Now they have a huge heatsink that requires a lot of free space that modern PCs don’t have.
Japanese company CFD presented its new M.2 NVMe SSD with connection PCIe 5.0. They have thermal paste and huge shellsuch as processors:
Of course, in return, the performance is simply brutal: 10 GB/s read and 9.5 GB/s writedoubling the current SSD with PCI-e 4.0.
CFD going to put them up for sale in sizes 1, 2 and 4 TB.
These gigantic sizes of both graphics cards and M.2 SSDs with PCIe 5.0forcing PC assemblers completely change the internal design of PC cases.
Until recently SSD they slid through a hole in the motherboard and were usually located under the memory or video card. But now, with such coolers, they claim their own place.
If you are going to buy gaming computer new generation to get used to the idea that cash machine or tower from your PC I will have large size due to M.2 PCI-e 5.0 SSD heatsinks. This can be a problem in rooms or rooms with little space. But when did that stop addicted PC gamers…
