The PCIe 4.0 is also equipped with an aluminum heat sink to dissipate heat effectively. The 3D Flash memory can hit up to 2 terabyte capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Kilburn, corporate vice president for AMD Client Channel, said they are excited to partner with Phison on the matter. They are trying to become the industry standard in storage solutions.<\/p>\n<p>He conceded that manufacturers are under constant pressure to always improve on the current technology. To be fair, the computing systems today are not enough to handle the demand. But he said the PCIe 4.0 serves as a bridge for manufacturers to meet the high expectations of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>The Gen4 already doubles the transfer rate compared to the PCIe 3.0 standard. Not only that, but the PCIe 4.0 also offers more stability, lower latency, and data integrity.\u00a0This enables vendors and designers to use the Gen4 for several applications such as SSD storage, gaming, networking, and PC.<\/p>\n<p>There are also some disadvantages if you want to use the latest PCIe 4.0 technology. For one, the only board that can handle it is the X570, and that one is not cheap.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, MSI might have been the first; however, it\u2019s expected that other manufacturers will catch up. Pretty soon, the Gen4 would be the standard for all boards and CPU, and GPU manufacturers will follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>Now, all that speed is overkill even for the most advanced of games. A SATA drive can more than adequately handle most games, which don\u2019t even breach speeds of 1GB\/s.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phison Electronics Corp. intends to roll out the fastest consumer SSDs on the market hitting 7GB\/s of read\/write speeds.
