Gigabyte AORUS Gen5 14000 AG514K1TB 1 TB

The fastest consumer NVMe drive of 2024, setting new technical standards with support for PCI-E 5.0 and NVMe 2.0 standards. The model is part of the Gigabyte Aorus series and represents a flagship solution for the most demanding categories of users, including gamers, content creators, and big data specialists. The heart of the Gigabyte AORUS Gen5 14000 is the Phison PS5026-E26 controller optimized for working with 232-layer flash memory.

To ensure high-speed operation, the drive is equipped with a 2000 MB DRAM buffer, which significantly accelerates caching processes and data access. This is especially important in scenarios where high speed for small files is required, such as open-world games or complex projects in graphic editors. The additional buffer helps reduce the load on the main memory, leading to improved system responsiveness and increased overall performance.

Thanks to the highest read and write speeds (13600 MB/s and 10200 MB/s, respectively), the Gigabyte AORUS Gen5 14000 is capable of handling tasks that previously seemed impossible for standard SSDs. The high reliability level is confirmed by a 5-year official warranty and a respectable guaranteed write resource (TBW) of 700 TB. Despite having a graphene heatsink, the manufacturer recommends using additional motherboard cooling to fully unlock the drive's potential.
