Patriot Viper PV553 PCIe 5.0 SSD arrives with up to 12.4 GB/s speeds

Patriot Memory has recently announced the latest addition to its SSD portfolio, the Viper PV553 M.2 2280 PCIe 5.0 M.2 SSD. This breakthrough SSD is designed to offer next-generation performance and features a unique active cooling mechanism.

The PV553 features a PCIe Gen 5 x4 controller and 232-layer TLC NAND that is fully compatible with NVMe 2.0 specifications. With an effective cooling heat shield, the PV553 stands out for its performance, delivering read/write speeds of up to 12,400 MB/s and 11,800 MB/s, respectively. To address overheating issues, the PV553 uses a unique cooling solution: an in-built fan that cools down the unit by drawing in cold air and sending it towards aluminium fins, resulting in a 40% heat reduction.

Patriot's new PCIe 5.0 SSD is designed to increase your performance. Its dual-sided high-conductivity thermal pad provides effective heat transmission to stacking fins, providing the excitement of next-generation storage performance by seamlessly merging PCIe Gen 5 controller technology with cutting-edge 3D NAND flash.

In addition, the Viper PV553 offers built-in data security and error correction, prolonging NAND flash storage life. With superior wear-levelling and automated error correction capabilities, it provides constant performance even after extended usage. Better yet, it is also covered by a 5-year warranty should you encounter any issues.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
