Team Group T-Force Launches ARGB Liquid Cooling Solution in Starting Year of PCIe Gen5 SSDs

Team Group Inc. announced cooling solution in starting year of PCIe Gen5 SSDs

In response to risen temperatures caused by the high transfer speeds of PCIe Gen 5 SSDs, T-Force, the gaming sub-brand of the company, has launched the first all-in-one ARGB liquid cooling system to reduce heat generated by both the CPU and SSD, allowing PCIe Gen5 SSDs to maintain optimal temperatures and stable, high-speed operations for sustained periods

In recent years, consumer storage products have seen rapid developments. This year, the industry will officially be entering the 1st year of Gen5 SSDs. In response to risen temperatures caused by the high transfer speeds of PCIe Gen 5 SSDs, T-Force has launched an all-in-one ARGB liquid cooling system to reduce heat generated by both the CPU and SSD, allowing PCIe Gen5 SSDs to maintain optimal temperatures and stable, high-speed operations for sustained periods. With this cooling solution, consumers can experience the storage performance of next-gen SSDs without any compromises.

Beginning in the 2000s, as the consumer market demanded higher RW speeds for storage devices, SSDs began to replace mechanical HDDs in large numbers. SATA SSDs eventually became the go-to choice for storage upgrades. With the demand for high-speed storage driven by big data and the spread of transmission technology, PCIe became the standard interface for speed transmission. In the past few years, read speeds of PCIe SSDs have increased from 3,500MB/s in Gen3 to 7,000MB/s in Gen4. PCIe Gen5 SSDs now have over 12,000MB/s RW speeds. The leaps in transfer speeds of each successive generation of SSDs have led to increased power wattage, which in turn have resulted in higher operating temperatures. When SSDs experience rising operating temperatures at high transfer speeds, an automatic throttling mechanism is activated to protect components from damage caused by the high temperatures. With power consumption of approximately 12W on a PCIe Gen4 SSD running at 7,000MB/s, the controller temperature can reach over 110℃. When PCIe Gen5 SSDs have speeds of over 12,000MB/s and consume 14W or above, one can expect controller temperatures to rise sharply. Therefore, the firm is committed to providing the thermal solutions for stable, high-speed operation of SSDs over sustained periods.

In order to offer consumers the most suitable cooling solutions, the company has developed a variety of cooling products for different environments and utilized various cooling materials over the years. In the process, it has obtained many patents for its innovations, such as its graphene copper foil heat spreader and aluminum fin heat sink. In anticipation of next-gen PCIe Gen5 SSDs arriving this year, the firm has launched an all-in-one ARGB liquid cooling system, solving the issue of heat generated by the CPU and SSD. To provide cooling products for consumers, the company strives to reach the next peak of performance in SSD storage solutions.
