Kingston reveals high-speed Fury Renegade G5 SSD for gamers and creators

Kingston's Fury Renegade G5 SSD hits 14,800MB/s speeds, built for high-performance gaming and content creation.

Kingston has launched the Fury Renegade G5, a new high-performance PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 SSD designed to meet the growing demands of gamers, content creators, and PC enthusiasts. If you plan to upgrade your setup or build a complete PCIe 5.0 system, this drive could be just what you want.

Built for speed and efficiency, the Fury Renegade G5 is set to deliver top-tier performance while keeping power use and heat output under control.

Blazing-fast read and write speeds

The heart of the Fury Renegade G5 is its impressive PCIe Gen5 x4 interface, paired with advanced 3D TLC NAND flash memory. This allows the drive to reach sequential read speeds of up to 14,800MB/s and write speeds up to 14,000MB/s. If you’ve been following recent storage releases, these numbers will likely catch your attention, especially since the write speed slightly edges out even the highly praised Samsung SSD 9100 Pro.

What does this mean for you? Faster game loading times, smoother video editing, and an overall snappier experience, whether working or playing. The upgrade can breathe life into your system and fully exploit PCIe 5.0’s potential.

Powered by an efficient controller

Kingston didn’t just chase high speeds—they also focused on keeping the drive efficient. The company chose the Silicon Motion SM2508 controller, which is built on a 6nm process. This controller is known for its balance of performance and power efficiency, crucial for managing thermals in high-speed components.

The Fury Renegade G5 includes low-power DDR4 DRAM cache to further support stable and efficient performance. This addition helps keep operations smooth and limits the chances of thermal throttling during heavy use. If you’ve ever experienced your system slowing down due to heat, you’ll appreciate this attention to detail.

Available in three storage options

The Fury Renegade G5 is available in three capacities, depending on your storage needs and budget. The 1TB version costs S$289, the 2TB model costs S$469, and the largest, 4TB, costs S$889. Each version has a limited 5-year warranty, giving you peace of mind with your purchase.

Whether you’re a competitive gamer needing top-tier responsiveness or a video editor managing large files daily, this SSD offers a solid foundation for high-performance tasks. It’s available now through Kingston’s official Lazada store.

So if you’ve been waiting for the right time to upgrade to PCIe 5.0, Kingston’s Fury Renegade G5 might be the powerful and efficient choice you’ve been looking for.
