Review: Kingston KC3000 PCIe 4.0 M.2 NVMe - Very Ambitious performance

Let me introduce you to Kingston's most prodigious KC3000 NVMe SSD, the PCIe Gen 4.0 SSD is one of the fastest NVMe SSDs we have tested so far, with a transfer rate of 7000 MB/sec. Not only does it look very attractive, but it also functions swift and fast.

Read the review here.

73°C with a heatsink? That's kind of very high for my taste, isn't it?

It has no heatsink but it seems a little high nevertheless.

Ah okay, I was confused by this paragraph on page 19:

Above the temperatures reported back from the sensors This is with the heatsink installed. Below is a thermal image with the SSD writing at max perf. It looks blurry, but that is the graphene sticker (which actually does work).

8240


But you are right obviously. Honestly, I know it's max perf, which I probably will never reach in my usage scenario, but then again I'd still personally prefer components that don't dump a lot of heat inside my case for being a hard drive...
Still a great detailed review like always HH & team!

It's on the high side, (but based on that graphene sticker cooling as we test as the product is delivered). The product hardly throttles really, you can see that in the linear write test.Once housed under a mobo heatsink, this is a non issue.
