Overview

Blistering speed, endless victory
Experience long-lasting fast performance of PCIe® 4.0. The in-house controller's smart heat control delivers supreme power efficiency while maintaining speed and performance to help keep you on the top of your game

PCIe 4.0 speed maximised
Huge speed boost. Up to 40% and 55% faster random read/write speeds than 980 PRO - up to 1400K/1550K IOPS, while sequential read/write speeds up to 7450/6900 MB/s reach near max performance of PCIe® 4.0². Fly high in gaming, video and 3D editing, data analysis, and more.

Incredible power efficiency
More power-efficient performance. Higher performance usually consumes more power. But, 990 PRO uses less power with over 50% improved performance per Watt over 980 PRO³.This low-power design delivers outstanding PCIe® 4.0 performance possible with optimal power efficiency.

Smart thermal solution
Speed beyond the heat. The nickel-coated controller and cutting-edge thermal control algorithm helps to manage heat for stable performance.The heat spreader label controls NAND chip heat, while Dynamic Thermal Guard keeps temperatures stable.

The champion maker
An amazing gameplay experience. Huge improvement in random performance enables faster loads for gaming realism on PS5 and DirectStorage PC games⁴.
