Corsair today announced the launch of the MP700 PRO SE PCIe 5.0 SSD, capable of achieving sequential read speeds of up to 14,000 MB/sec and sequential write speeds up to 12,000 MB/sec. These impressive throughput figures are nearly twice as fast as what you'll see from the most capable PCIe 4.0 SSDs and up to 25 times faster than common SATA SSDs. The MP700 PRO SE is available in 2 TB and 4 TB capacities.

In addition to its phenomenal sequential read and write performance, the MP700 PRO SE takes advantage of the latest interface, controller, and NAND flash technologies to deliver outstanding random read and write performance - vital when it comes to transferring smaller files and serving as the primary OS drive. Experience faster load times for Windows, applications, and games, while transferring large files becomes a breeze. With native support for Microsoft DirectStorage, the MP700 PRO SE is ready to provide a gaming advantage not only in today's games but in tomorrow's too. The MP700 PRO SE performs at its best alongside the latest platforms such as Intel 14th Gen and AMD Ryzen 7000 series CPUs and PCIe 5.0 motherboards. However, it also maintains backwards compatibility with PCIe 4.0 motherboards, providing a clear upgrade path and ensuring the drive's longevity for years to come.

The MP700 PRO SE adheres to the industry standard M.2 2280 form factor, ensuring wide compatibility with a range of systems and platforms while maintaining ease of installation. Although the drive requires cooling to achieve optimal performance, the integrated M.2 cooling on most motherboards is more than capable. Additionally, the MP700 PRO SE is available with a stylish active cooler that keeps the drive running smoothly and minimizes throttling.

The MP600 CORE is available now in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB capacities. The MP600 PRO is available in 1TB and 2TB capacities immediately with a 4TB model coming soon, while the MP600 PRO Hydro X Edition comes in a 2TB capacity, complete with an integrated CORSAIR Hydro X Series XM2 water block that connects your SSD seamlessly into your custom cooling loop. The XM2 water block is also available for purchase as a standalone product, compatible with many existing M.2 SSDs.

CORSAIR, a world leader in high-performance gaming peripherals and enthusiast components, today announced the immediate availability of a wide range of NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30-Series compatible water blocks in its award-winning Hydro X Series of custom cooling parts. The new range of Hydro X Series XG7 RGB GPU Water Blocks delivers exceptional cooling performance and unrivaled aesthetics for GeForce RTX 3080 and 3090 Founders Edition, ASUS ROG STRIX, MSI VENTUS, and dozens of reference design graphics cards. A full compatibility list for all supported models is online at https://www.corsair.com/custom-cooling-configurator/gpu-search.

Equipped with more than 50 high-density cooling fins, a full-length aluminum backplate, and 16 individually addressable RGB LEDs, the new water blocks allow enthusiasts to experience all the benefits of custom liquid cooling alongside the breakthrough performance of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 30-Series graphics cards.

In a somewhat puzzling trend, this is yet another launch from CORSAIR's Hydro X series of custom watercooling components that has not been marketed by the company. It took a careful set of eyes to see the new CPU block, the Hydro X Series XC5, on their website and evidently this is a new release targeting even more a budget-friendly build compared to the Hydro XC7 and Hydro XC9 blocks. The XC5 block is a cost-down version of the XC7, with support for Intel LGA 115x/1200 and AMD AM4 CPU sockets depending on the SKU you go with. Gone is the transparent top, and instead we see a black nylon top with a patterned cutout for RGB lighting. The nickel-plated copper cold plate is replaced with passivated copper, which may also please all you pure copper folks out there, and the 16 RGB LEDs are now set up in 8 lighting zones (two LEDs per zone) as opposed to fully addressable 16 dRGB LEDs on the XC7. This means that the Hydro XC5 blocks can be had for $60/€60 before applicable taxes, which is $20 less than the XC7 on street pricing at the moment.
