Kingston FURY Renegade G5 PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 SSD - 1TB/2TB/4TB
The Kingston FURY Renegade G5 is a PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD built for high-performance gaming, content creation, and hardware-intensive workloads where speed and thermals matter. It delivers up to 14,800 MB/s read and 14,000 MB/s write across its larger capacities, with a 12-layer PCB and advanced controller designed to manage heat efficiently.
Why this product
PCIe Gen5 x4 performance
Up to 14,800 MB/s read and 14,000 MB/s write on the 2TB and 4TB models. The 1TB variant reaches 14,200 MB/s read and 11,000 MB/s write.
Silicon Motion SM2508 controller
Built on 6nm lithography with low-power DDR4 DRAM cache and independent Buck IC for lower power draw and better thermal management.
12-layer PCB for thermal stability
The multi-layer design improves signal quality and data integrity while keeping operating temperatures within 0–70°C.
Backward compatible with Gen3 and Gen4
Works in older systems without loss of performance, making it a straightforward upgrade path for existing builds.
5-year warranty
Backed by Kingston's limited 5-year warranty and free technical support.

- Fits M.2 2280 socket on any motherboard with a PCIe Gen3, Gen4, or Gen5 x4 slot.
- Works as a boot drive or additional storage in desktop and notebook computers.
- Gen3 and Gen4 systems will see lower speeds than Gen5 hardware, but the drive remains fully compatible.
- Not intended for server environments; vendor explicitly designs it for client-side desktop and notebook workloads only.
Best for
- Gamers and competitive players seeking fast load times and reduced stutter.
- Content creators working with large video or image files who value high sequential write sustained performance.
- Hardware enthusiasts building high-end PCIe Gen5 systems and wanting maximum bandwidth.
- Users who want cooler operation with proactive thermal design rather than passive dissipation alone.
Trade-offs
- 1TB buyers needing maximum write speed: The 1TB model peaks at 11,000 MB/s write versus 14,000 MB/s on larger capacities.
- Server or data-center deployments: Kingston explicitly states this drive is not intended for server environments.
- Budget-conscious users on PCIe Gen3 systems: You'll pay Gen5 prices for Gen3 speeds, with no performance advantage over older Gen3 or Gen4 drives.
- Users needing maximum endurance: The 1TB model offers 1,000 TBW, roughly half the per-TB rating of the 4TB variant.
Kingston FURY™ Renegade G5 PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 SSD is for high-power users, hardware enthusiasts and gamers ready for the latest Gen 5x4 performance. With raging speeds up to 14,800MB/s read and 14,000MB/s write, its extreme performance boosts game and app load times and improves reaction time, while its exceptional design keeps it cool.
Take control with cutting-edge PCIe Gen5 x4 speeds and up to 2,200,000/2,200,000 IOPS performance. Designed with the Silicon Motion SM2508 controller based on 6nm lithography which allows for better thermal management, low-power DDR4 DRAM cache providing less power consumption, independent Buck IC for consistent power draw, and a 12-layer PCB for enhanced signal quality and superior data integrity.
Compact M.2 2280 form factor easily slots into most motherboards and is backward compatible with Gen3 and Gen4 systems.
This SSD is designed for use in desktop and notebook computer workloads and is not intended for Server environments.
