Why cant Samsung use a heat sink to cool the IO chip ? So that thermal throttling can be avoided even during intense loads.


I'm guessing the form factor spec doesn't allow for that much height, especially laptops that will also use these. That said, there shouldn't be any reason why people can't add it themselves if their board layout allows.

I can't believe they didn't ship a 1TB variant. I have a 840 500GB now -- and I definitely want the extra speed, but I also want at least 1TB. Meh


Says coming early 2016

From where is that information? I wouldn't mind a 1TB myself.

Samsung announced it when they announced the 48 layer V-NAND. I just wish it was out sooner. So many games, so little space.
