I asked how much it might potentially cost, and one of the booth reps laughed knowingly, before shaking their head.<\/p>\n<p>That&apos;ll be rather expensive then. Just a hunch. Anyway, speedy, pricey. Same old story, really. But what about the heat?<\/p>\n<p>Well, Team Group does appear to have been iterating on cooler designs to beat the heat from Gen 5 drives, with some potential pre-production ideas on display. The problem is, none of them really get around the fact that to get the most out of a top spec Gen 5 drive, it still looks like you need a miniature tower block to ensure it keeps from throttling over extended use.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery inline-layout\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-wrap\" style=\"display:flex; flex-flow:row nowrap;\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"cLUD46mARca8gTDEV5NiwY\" name=\"20240604_160203.jpg\" alt=\"Some prototype cooler designs for Gen 5 SSD drives at the Team Group booth at Computex\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/team-group-showed-me-some-blazingly-fast-gen-5-ssds-pink-ddr5-and-a-host-of-wacky-cooling-solutions-to-keep-it-all-in-check.jpg\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"2268\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 2 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"tnjfch7FAmYCPxtUcu9Rua\" name=\"20240604_160235.jpg\" alt=\"A modular magnetic SSD cooler design from Team Group at Computex 2024\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/team-group-showed-me-some-blazingly-fast-gen-5-ssds-pink-ddr5-and-a-host-of-wacky-cooling-solutions-to-keep-it-all-in-check-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"2268\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The best of these cooling concepts was a multi-heatsink configuration held together with magnets, making extra cooling capacity a more stackable, modular affair. It was quite satisfying to hold, and if I&apos;m honest I&apos;d quite like one as a desk toy\u2014snapping the heatsinks together was good fun.<\/p>\n<p>What I really can&apos;t get behind, however, is this DDR5 RAM cooler. While I was assured that it wasn&apos;t actually a requirement for cooling the DDR5 on display, and was more for machines with limited cooling capacity, attaching a small, adjustable hovercraft to the top of your RAM really feels like a stretch solution to a problem that shouldn&apos;t exist.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery inline-layout\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-wrap\" style=\"display:flex; flex-flow:row nowrap;\">\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 1 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"9bJNti7kUCx2amtYjFkHAG\" name=\"20240604_155831.jpg\" alt=\"A RAM cooler from Team Group at Computex 2024\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/team-group-showed-me-some-blazingly-fast-gen-5-ssds-pink-ddr5-and-a-host-of-wacky-cooling-solutions-to-keep-it-all-in-check-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"2268\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"inlinegallery-item\" style=\"flex: 0 0 auto;\"><span class=\"slidecount\">Image 2 of 2<\/span><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:4032px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"iKEnSZeZby2jwFYpnRnkGJ\" name=\"20240604_155837.jpg\" alt=\"A RAM cooler from Computex 2024, tilted\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/team-group-showed-me-some-blazingly-fast-gen-5-ssds-pink-ddr5-and-a-host-of-wacky-cooling-solutions-to-keep-it-all-in-check-3.jpg\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"4032\" height=\"2268\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>At first, I appreciated it for novelty value.
