When it comes to the world of PC gaming, a new SSD controller chip is unlikely to garner many headlines, as it's normally the solid state drives they're used in that are more newsworthy. But at this year's Computex event, SSD specialist Phison announced a new controller that is faster and more power efficient than the competition, and even has integrated AI processing to speed up…well…AI processing.
The controller in question is the rather unassumingly titled E28, and it's already picked up an award at Computex for its innovation. Manufactured on TSMC's N6 process node, Phison says the E28 sports random read/write rates of 2,600K and 3,000K IOPS, respectively.
