Corsair One ELITE Review (W/ i7-8700K and GTX 1080 Ti)

Mike Jennings March 9, 2018 Featured Tech Reviews, Gaming PC, PC, Reviews

Here we test the Corsair One Elite‘s storage performance, using CrystalDiskMark 5.1.1.

The Corsair One Pro’s Samsung PM961 drive returned read and write scores of 3,075MB/s and 1,545MB/s. They’re both excellent results – the read speed is a little ahead of the OEM drive in the Armari, and the write figure is twice as good.

Those results are good in the wider world, too, with few SSDs out there that’ll match this drive for pace. That means games and applications will load quickly, and we have no issue with boot times – the Corsair loads Windows 10 in a handful of seconds.

Our only qualm is absolutely tiny: we wish Corsair had used a Samsung 960 EVO drive, as they’re a little bit faster still.

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.
