Crucial T700 2TB SSD Review

Simon Crisp June 12, 2023 Reviews, SSD Drives, Tech News

We took note of the drive’s temperature during some of our benchmarking runs. During our benchmarking runs, the hottest the drive got was 47° C during CrystalDiskMark 8 default test runs. For the non-4 K tests the drive averaged 39.72° C while for the 4K-based tests, the average was 32.72° C.

Keeping the drive cool in our test rig (Gigabyt X670E AORUS Xtreme motherboard) is a serious chunk of machined aluminium (weighing in at 150g) as a heatsink for the Gen5 slot. Not only that, there are two thermal pads that the drive is sandwiched between for maximum heat displacement.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
