Key Specifications

Extreme PCIe Gen5 Performance

The Kingston FURY Renegade G5 harnesses PCIe Gen5 x4 technology to deliver blistering speeds of up to 14,800MB/s read and 14,000MB/s write. This translates to near-instant game loading, rapid file transfers, and seamless 4K video editing workflows. The 2,200,000 IOPS random read/write performance ensures smooth operation even under heavy multitasking loads.

Advanced Thermal Management

Engineered with a Silicon Motion SM2508 controller built on 6nm lithography, this SSD maintains optimal temperatures during intense workloads. The 12-layer PCB design enhances signal integrity and data reliability, while the low-power DDR4 DRAM cache reduces heat output and energy consumption. These features work together to keep performance consistent without thermal throttling.

Compact M.2 2280 Design

The slim M.2 2280 form factor makes installation straightforward in most modern motherboards and laptops. Backwards compatibility with PCIe Gen3 and Gen4 systems ensures you can upgrade without compatibility concerns. The 22mm width and 80mm length fit standard M.2 slots, making it suitable for both desktop builds and compact gaming laptops.

Check before you buy

• Confirm your motherboard supports M.2 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSDs
• Verify available M.2 slot clearance for the 2280 form factor
• Check your system’s BIOS/UEFI supports PCIe Gen5 if you want full performance
• Ensure adequate cooling for sustained high-speed operation
