PNY is looking to shatter the notion that buying a cutting-edge solid state drive (SSD) that leverages the PCI Express 5.0 bus has to be an expensive proposition. Proving otherwise is the company's new CS2150 series that starts at $99.99 for 1TB of storage, making it the least expensive 1TB PCIe 5.0 SSD on the market...

We've talked a lot about CUDIMMs, or Clock Unbuffered Dual Inline Memory Modules over the past week or so, but that's not the only development in memory. In what we hope becomes a trend, memory makers are starting to implement both AMD EXPO and Intel XMP profiles on the same DDR5 kits, with PNY the latest to do so...

Ever since NVIDIA made the unusual move of "unlaunching" the 12GB version of its GeForce RTX 4080 graphics card, speculation has run rampant that it will ultimately return but with a new moniker, that being the GeForce RTX 4070 Ti. Adding to the growing piles of leaks and rumors, it appears as though PNY has confirmed...

Memory makers are not necessarily waiting around for next-gen platforms to arrive before unveiling or releasing DDR5 RAM modules. PNY certainly is not.

Though cryptocurrency has drawn some ire worldwide, there is some serious market potential, and it would be foolish for tech companies to ignore potential financial gains. Take, for example, a cryptocurrency called Chia, which utilizes unused storage as part of a proof of space and time blockchain. The faster, the...

Is cryptocurrency mining the reason why we can't have nice things? You could make that argument in some instances, even with solid state drives (SSDs). Case in point, PNY has significantly reduced the endurance rating on its high-performance XLR8 CS3030 SSD family, and by extension, potentially slashed the warranty...

The market for PCIe 4.0 SSDs is expanding at a rapid pace, helped in part -- in the consumer market -- by the introduction of AMD's Zen 2/X570 platform in 2019. With the launch of Tiger Lake and the upcoming Zen 3 and Rocket Lake desktop processor platforms, PCIe 4.0 SSDs are going to filter further into the...

Asetek and cooling, two names that seem to always go together. Now, you can add a third: PNY.

NVIDIA's GeForce 9 Series was first introduced in February of this year by way of the 9600 GT launch.
