SK Hynix, the second largest memory maker in the world, has today announced its latest NVMe PCIe Gen 4.0 SSD – the Platinum P41. The new Platinum P41 offers increased performance over the previous Gold P31 series, offering top-end PCIe 4.0 speeds.

The new SK Hynix Platinum P41 is the company's first Gen 4.0 SSD, with 176-NAND layers and capacity ranging from 500GB to 2TB.

The SSD uses SK Hynix's own Aries controller, and is capable of up to 7,000 MB/s sequential read speeds and 6,500 MB/s sequential write speeds, as well as random read/write speeds of 1400K and 1300K IOPS. Finally, the SSD will also offer industry-leading endurance, rated for 1200TBW.

The SK Hynix Platinum P41 PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSDs will be available sometime in Q1 2022 and pricing is still to be confirmed.

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.
