Both the new Phoenix controller and Intelligent TurboWrite technology for the 970 EVO transform high-end gaming and streamline graphics intensive workflows. Combining exceptional endurance powered by the latest V-NAND technology, the 970 EVO is the new standard delivering a stunning sequential read/write performance of up to 3,500/2,500 MB/s respectively and a five-year limited warranty.
