Kingston Fury Renegade Overview
As you can see we received the heatsink version of the Fury Renegade. As I mentioned earlier there is also a non-heatsink version. For those wondering there is only a $5 difference between the heatsink and non-heatsink versions.
As far as the heatsink goes you have a matte black heatsink that has the Fury logo in the center. There are a set of grooves cut into the heatsink which allow air the flow through it. The matte black is going to look great on pretty much any motherboard out there.
Flipping the drive over there is a sticker on the back with all of your pertinent information.
Unlike other heatsinks we’ve seen on drives this one is held into place with screws. Now you will void your warranty if you remove these screws, so keep that in mind. The heatsink itself is not all that tall, so you shouldn’t run into any clearance issues with your graphics card.
For those wondering under the hood you’ll find the Phison PS5018-E18 PCI-Express 4.0 controller, Micron 176-layer 3D TLC NAND, and two Kingston DDR4-2666 cache chips (2GB).
