Intels Optane 905P m2-ssd Cooled with EKWB heatsink block available soon
To blow some new life into the Optane series, the 905P M2 series SSD was announced. As it looks now, the company will be releasing a 905P m2-SSD cooled with EKWB heatsink block available soon. The product is listed at eggy as a preorder and would be available or roughly 500 USD (380GB).
By itself nothing new, but what is of interest is that the Optane unit now has an ALU cooling block, with an EK logo slapped on top of it. Intel launched the m2 variant of the Optane 905P in June, back then not listing a precise publication date and price. Be warned, the m2 uses form factor 22110 and thus is 22mm wide and has a length of 110mm. The 905P line is the successor of the 900P and currently consists of a PCI-e-card of 960GB and a u2-model of 480GB.

I see Optane each time more like BTX or RDRAM (not from intel), nice tech that doesn't beat the standard they were designed to beat

It may but only with Intel... This is the main fail for this product.
But the result of the biggest Optane is a reality for specific task ( and i don't call "Fortnite" a task
).

This frase just make my day, i can see where Optane works, it is really cool tech, but nvme is very close to it in its own game (high iops) and sadly the price just doesn't fit the ssd market, i think they should leave it to the enterprise market where you can spend that much money on nand memory

Pretty expensive for optane memory. Bought the same heatsink minus the word intel at the egg for 15 dollars. Does a great job keeping an MX500 M2 SSD cool.
