Conclusion and Verdict
The FURY Renegade SSD is one more great product from Kingston. It’s fast, stable, and reliable. I’m sure gamers will be satisfied with the Renegade SSD, the same as with great RAM and other gaming products.
Users must remember that this SSD comes with a pre-installed heat sink, and they can’t remove it if they want to keep the SSD’s warranty. This is the only disadvantage if we, for some reason, pick the wrong version. The option without a heat sink is also available, so think twice while deciding on components for your new computer or if you want to upgrade an existing PC. It’s easier with a PS5 console as the FURY Renegade is fully compatible out of the box, and the heat sink version is recommended.
The performance of the FURY Renegade is impressive, especially in demanding tests and everything that uses heavy multi-threading and random operations. Tests based on a load of many small files also show great results, which is very important in many new online games.
A five-year warranty or a 2PBW covers the FURY Renegade. The five years are not the longest option on the market, but the 2PBW is already a lot for the 2TB SSD, and should last much over five years in a typical gaming PC.
Amazon sells the Kingston FURY Renegade 2TB M.2 NVMe SSD (with heat sink) for around $236.40. The price of SSD went down significantly in the last months, so I would even say it’s inexpensive considering how big an impact it does on modern computers, and the 2TB capacity is more than enough for most users.
Pros:
- High quality
- Top performance
- Compatible with PS5
- Available in high capacities, up to 4TB
- 5-year/2PBW warranty
- Heat sink helps to keep optimal temperature and performance
- Reasonable price
Cons:
- Not compatible with motherboards with already installed thick thermal pads for both sides of SSD and built-in heat sinks, or ROG GEN-Z M.2 SSD cards
- Warranty sticker on the heat sink – can’t remove the heat sink without losing a warranty
Final words:
Kingston FURY Renegade 2TB NVMe SSD proves it meets the high requirements of demanding users. The SSD is fast and fully stable. It also works with PS5 consoles, and the built-in heat sink helps to keep the optimal performance during long gaming sessions. Since the FURY Renegade is also affordable, then you can’t go wrong with this SSD!
