Debating on getting this to upgrade me 860 EVO SSD even though it works fine I’ve had it for a bit and I’m building a new rig due to my current one having PSU issues.

What do you guys think, would like to pick it up locally today.

I mean, it’s definitely an upgrade. Depends on what games/programs you’re running but you honestly probably won’t notice a difference.

m.2 is the way to go.. faster speed and no cables? whats not to like??

loading games or boot time wont be much faster, maybe 1-2 secs but file copy and some installs will be faster ofc
