The Corsair Neutron GTX is comparatively more expensive than its peers
Corsair has chosen to launch the Neutron GTX as their flagship performance SSD which as we stated before means the GTX has some pretty large shoes to fill. There are areas where the GTX outperforms all others and is indeed worthy of flagship status but...
Amazing sequential performance, 7 mm thick, Ultrabook ready, SATA 6 Gbps support, Supports TRIM, 5-year warranty
Real-life performance lower than expected, Relatively high price, Needs a SATA 6 Gbps controller to perform best
Corsair's new Neutron GTX performs quite well in our testing. We see real-life performance that's almost on par with SandForce drives, and a few percent behind the Corsair Performance Pro, which is the fastest drive we ever tested. Our colleagues who u...

The Corsair Neutron GTX is comparatively more expensive than its peers
The Corsair Neutron GTX is one of the best solid-state drives on the market, especially for those who want top performance from their ultrathin portable computer.
Incredibly strong performance in endurance write-heavy workloads, Best large-block sequential and random write speeds, Maintains low response times in our enterprise workloads
Falls behind SandForce-powered SSDs in bursty consumer workloads
If we only looked at the Corsair Neutron GTX with our standard consumer workloads, we would have found the drive to be nice, although not particularly remarkable in many ways. What's exciting though is that when we really start working the drive hard with...
