yes but you get NVMe expansion cards
if storage is your concern and you want an x670e board get the ASUS creator board
i am also aware of those. both as the storage cards and as the nvme expansion cards
bang for buck get TUF
i think i have reviewed both boards
best performing for this gen get gigabyte
ive heard bad things
here are some older optane drives that actually appear on pcpp
it looks like some dont use u.2 at all
you probably heard about asus releasing bata updates that fuck them up yes
as long as you are looking at what you are downloading and updating youre fine
ive heard about equally bad stuff from asus
just stay in the lane of norms
then youre fine
i dont like ASUS either this gen
i went with a gigabyte MB
if you need storage
wait
how much storage do you need? and what for?
okay so yeah i finally found one
Intel Optane P1600X 58GB
it doesnt use u.2 at all
which looks like all the m.2 optane drives use 3x4 and since the adapter is 3x4, that means the speeds shouldnt be slowed down
shes basically wasting her time
im just so lost
get a MB with 2 or more NVMe slots
you have 4 sata ports available minimum (80% of boards)
get 512gb sata ssd for OS and other basic software and applications
PCIe 3 for games are fine but PCIe 4 drives are as of recent priced really well
get a game drive
if you do work and require large space for editing then anywhere upwards from 2TB and you can always partition
if you want to separate the drives then 1TB for games and 1 or 2TB for work (depends on what you do because even 512 is enough sometimes)
CPU buy low now so ryzen 5 range but spend good on a MB rn (only real possible future proofing IMO)
then at the end of this ryzen sockets lifespan buy high so ryzen 9 or 3d CPU if you are more focused on gaming
GPU thats all up to what you want to do again
😭
basically you are over complicating everything and the most complicated thing you need to be looking at is use case
what do you need it for
im p sure my mb progress is in a link somewhere in these threads
it is
i skimmed past it ngl
my cpu is already the 7950x3d
may i ask why?
ive done this roundabout too many times, may i assume you want me to go intel lol
no lmao
i dont like that intel does a change every 2 generations
but then again use case
does the software you wanna run work better with intel? then sure maybe id suggest them
im team red tho
dont even think i'll ever touch a nvidia card again
personally i have no bias to intel or amd. i dont care at all. but the numbers are numbers. i never did any cpu + ram comparisons tho. and it seems like intel probably wins overall there anyway so amd might have the better cpus, but it doesnt matter if intel ends up having a better cpu + ram combo synergy
im going the 4090
suprim liquid x
ok but why all this?
because if youre gonna spend all that on your GPU and CPU then why look at gen 3 SSDs
get a 4080
play 1440p
get better SSDs
or just get 7900xtx and have all your updates in one place if youre getting an AMD CPU
A deep dive into the emerging E1.S & E1.L form factors which are transitioning into mainstream data centre SSD form factors.
it looks like they are moving away from u.2
long ago
what are e1.s and e1.l
did you read the article?
oh i see now
everything you are asking is in there?
its the server m.2
that's pretty interesting.
its so funny how things will go enterprise then consumer then back to enterprise
cause it basically went u.2 >> m.2 >> E1
you are a normal consumer
using consumer level products all you need to worry about is m.2 and SATA
and then there is E3 which is probably the newest tech
basically 5th gen m.2s with 16 lanes lmao
the future of consumer m.2s will be interesting.
primocache and storemi are interesting
You’re wasting your time tbh. Most people in here just stopped helping her lol
after interacting i realised
just gonna continue with my paper
That’s seems pretty stupid. Paying 75$ for a 118gb drive
Whatever waste your money on a underperforming drive Idc
google isnt telling me its underperforming
holy hell
For the price you pay for the drive and capacity it’s very underperforming
Barely over 1000 mb/s read & write…. And it’s $75 for 118gb lol. You could buy drives twice that speed that are 2tb for the same price
this is for a boot drive.
That’s still god awful performance for that price
Doesn’t really matter it’s also an outdated ssd
Cheaper alternatives offer more performance for a better price in 2023
but it has double the performance of most of the top performing ssds in terms of minimum random r/w which ive been told is the best measure of day to day performance for normal operations
Even if those random read and writes were sustained it’s still fucking stupid to pay $75 for 118gb of storage that you’re not gonna see a noticeable difference in performance on with a $50 1tb TLC cache drive
You've actually been told you can't take advantage of the speed in real world applications but ignore it every single time 
You seriously can’t lol
no
rauko was talking about seq for some reason lmao
Most people don’t even notice the difference between sata and m.2 I’d theyre being used as a boot drive
Cause boot times and general loading are the same speeds
it's true for both seq and random
Buy it then why ask us if you’re doing the research and coming to a conclusion yourself lol
i mean even from what ive seen from ltt, q1 is what matters the most
im not asking, im letting the thread know this is what im going
earlier i was asking about u.2s because i wanted to see how practical a u.2 ssd would be
because at first i really didnt like optane because of the u.2 adapter, but it seems like its not really a big deal
ok
and also the p5800x is $2000
which i dont really want to do, but i could
optane always specializes in random r/w speeds
which is really only useful for a boot drive
so theres no real need to have a 1tb or 2tb optane drive
Intel Optane 905P 380GB would also be a good option
i didnt know they have rgb m.2s
so when you see the inflated disk rating of other drives and compare optane to the sequential speeds of other drives, of course you would look at $75 and think its overpriced
but what im seeing is $75 for top 5 in the market today.
the p1600x definitely sacrifices having any relevant sequential speed in order to have 200+ mb/s iops at q1 (qd1)
and q1 is the highest resolution for iops
haii
What ya lookin for this time
storage right now
cause i cant access my mb notes
i felt p close to a storage decision
ok cool
Are we getting an SSD or HDD?
i basically want best on the market, budget doesnt matter but probably not $2000 ssd
SSDs aren’t 2000 lol
basically an ssd but i saw this hdd which has really high iops
some are
buy a cheap 2TB one
For what your doing you’ll have 0 point to those
There’s no point in even considering them
the higher capacity seems to have a decrease in speed / performance overall, however a 4tb t700 seems to stay on par with the top performing 2tb ssds on the market
It seriously will not matter, your not doing high data transfers
You just having the SSD is already to your advantage
i would much rather look at the best real world performers and then drop down depending on how much im willing to spend
so if the #1 ssd is $2000 then its nice to know, but i can just drop down
so im pretty sure the only reason that is the case, is cause its the stigma in the pc building world. and after looking at the charts, that makes sense.
because every ssd has almost the same identical iops at q1 EXCEPT for like 5 of them.
meaning yeah YOU probably couldnt tell a difference BECAUSE you never bought one of those
For what your doing, it seriously doesn’t matter
….
No.
It’s because there’s no realistic difference like
At all
you don’t see any kind of visual difference between them
The one time a 980 pro is actually the value option 
and also i just mostly think that everyone in the community says that because thats what everyone is saying and i honestly think its because no one has the money to buy a higher performing q1 ssd
What do you think will be the advantage of it?
990 pro*
Wow that’s a waste of money but
i have a gun
Ig yeah that works
nerf gun
q1 is basically the min speed.
And unless your somehow going to take advantage of those speeds, you’ll never see a drive that high
i also know that after a little bit ssds will drop draastically in speed from their marketed speeds to their q20 ish speed and then after awhile will drop to q1 speeds or something
so 90% of the time you are sitting at the q1 speed area
maybe higher
this image are the drives with the highest q1 speeds
So which do you want to do than
sleep preferably
but if you look at basically ANY other drive that isnt top market
yes they all perform basically the exact same
because every drive is literally 100 mb/s
wh
this drive for example is the best price / perf option on the market (THIS IS NOT A PRICE / PERF BUILD)
AND it has a q1 of 80 mb/s for $27
its no wonder people say all ssds operate the same and no one notices a difference
so what are we buying than
it's because the #1 ssd in terms of q1 randoms is the only ssd that is almost 5 times faster than most ssds
#2 ssd - q1 randoms is nearly 3 times faster
and these are the speeds that YOU should notice
people just in general say that this is impossible because theres literally only like 3-4 ssds that exist that you would be able to tell
and half of them are $2000 so not really worth it
personally i wouldnt go the NVMe WD Blue SN570 500GB besides it being kind of a joke buy because its literally a free ssd.
this ssd is literally price / performance for the sake of being price / performance
arby's
its great for what it is. i basically wouldnt recommend any other ssd for any budget build
chick-fil-a
chipotle
i would rather go this viper ssd if i was going price / perf route
@uncut burrow chill lol
buffalo wild wings
Don’t need u muted
lmao
So viper than?
<@&750150305383186585>
if i was going cheap route then yeah
Than go with that
just cause it's basically $46 and it's 33% faster in 90% of tasks for a 200% price hike
Part List - AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, GeForce RTX 4090, Vetroo AL600 ATX Mid Tower
orr i could go for the p1600x
HDD isnt an option basically
So whichever you pick really does not matter
it is
this hdd has speeds that are on par with optane drives
dont look at HDDs
i dont get why you would want an intel optane
or a hard drive
none of your activities benefit from a super mega ultra hyper fast ssd
hdd is just honestly good cheap high cap storage for user data
Oh I forgot this is a VAN setup
just go with 990 pros
Best option
yes
thats true
not good for vans though
absurdly fast and damn good
look im aware of the fragility of hdds. lets just leave it there. im tired of people going ham on the vanlife build. this is not exactly a full on van life build im just wanting to build a normal pc with mild considerations on vanlife
so i dont want a vanlife pc lmao
i want a monster pc and i will cope
alr
but yeah...
the point still stands
if you want to move the pc around, go jsut ssds
i will tell you guys all about how my vanlife dreams were crushed when my pc couldnt turn on later
yeah and thats why i still largely discredit that hdd even though it is probably one of the best hdds on the market
¯_(ツ)_/¯
okay well i do have a big question
why even try forking out money
for these super fast q1 speed ssds
cause some data centers actually need them
if cache is ultimately the clutch of the ssd anyway and is faster than optane
no consumers do
no no im asking
what if i just went the super high cache ssd routee
like why do these even exist
i feel like with 131gb of cache i wont ever run out and i basically dont need to give a fuck about it being pseudo slc, tlc, qlc, 100 rnd q1 iops or 450 rnd q1 iops
ive been told over and over sequential doesnt matter. OKAY so then i wont look at ssds with high sequentials, but this is what google is telling me about random reads and writes
i honestly wont pay $2000 for 450 rnd q1 iops but yeahhhh i might spend $75 on 220 rnd q1 iops tho
you can buy them, they wont benefit
again, 990 pros are good enough if you wanna go overkill
i feel like the 990 pro tries to do it all and wants those high seq speeds
its not exactly about it being gen 5 thats the big deal
990 pro pretty much maxes out the gen 4
its that the gen 5 allows the t700 to be on par with a 2tb 990 pro
better even
but again, these are sequentials so not likely to get much use out of on a daily basis
the exact t700 im looking at is the CT4000T700SSD5
AND
here are the pcpp for both exact part numbers
t700 isnt really worth the $500 but to me thats still like nothing in terms of budget.
if it was priced at the 990 pro, it should cost $300
gen 5 is new technology so its pricy
yeah but it allows for higher caps on one drive
ok, but its new so its pricy
which is always valuable. it is the ultimate goal of cell level technology
im okay with going a little pricy tho, as long as its not insane
insane to you guys isnt insane to me lol
it is insane though
Paying $75 for a 118gb drive is insane
what i see is +$200 overpriced
but some of that goes towards the convenience of it being on one drive
a 2tb 990 pro is $135
a 2tb t700 is 270
its double
for the same thing
Yup lol
And here I thought storage was almost decided. What the fuck.
Don’t get a 990 pro. Don’t get a t700
Probably why Intel Optane is being discontinued. Because theirs no real world advantage to it for the price it cost
Why not just the sabrent you linked a while ago
tbh this is what im thinking right now so far lmao
u are aware its the same shit right
oh my fucking god 😭
intel optane for a boot drive
crazy
No optane holy shit
its only $75
isnt that slower than a pcie 4
and 3x as much
Yea what I was telling her earlier it’s slow and overpriced
Also no t700 PLEASE
optane is only worth as cache tbh
Not at that price
uh
That’s what I said when this first came up a long time ago (actually like a day ago lol)
What about it
q1
That’s awful.
its not
that goes to show that youve been looking at the wrong numbers
mid
$45 1tb drives perform better lol
slower than a hard drive isnt a good way to show
It’s a 118gb drive that’s 8 times as expensive
Yea lol it’s a stupid choice
theres only 1 hdd that is faster and it is $160
But don’t pay fucking $75 for 118GB
At that point buy a TeamGroup mp44L
its $160 cause its 8 fucking terrabytes
its for a boot drive
Meaning it’s slow as fuck
Yea a slow boot drive
its not its literally top market
its $75 for a thing that costs $20 bro 😭
Actual lies
Holy shit who told you that
you are thinking of sequential speeds
oh my lord
why are you mixing them up lol
these are LITERALLY the fastest drives for 90% of use cases
Do you even know what randoms are useful for?
order it right now
yes but here i will post this for you
They’re not the fastest drives tho. Lol consumer drives are faster
Gen 4 consumer drives are faster
whats goin on in here
they arent. you are thinking of sequential priority drives
No I’m thinking of random lol
ssd that gets beaten by a hard drive
My Crucia P3 is much faster then that Intel drive in random reads and writes
all im saying
And it’s a shitty qlc drive
ssds scatter files across the drive snyway
by a NAS hard drive btw
You won’t tell a difference bro in any of those use cases 😂🤦🏼♂️
so yeah 450 mb/s q1 is gonna be 4 times minimum faster than EVERY ssd on the market
And still yet a consumer drive is faster in gen 4
whats hilarious is that it is gen 3 and 4 times faster
If you base it off the p1600x or whatever which had like 1600 mb/s random read and write my crucial does 2500 random read and write q1 and it’s a $43 drive
1tb too
shut up about ur sequentials
Not to mention it’s almost twice as fast in sequential transfer
The hell
P1600x vs p5 plus 1TB
Did I just see chatgpt
Even the p3 is faster lol
yes 💀
The hell
The p5 obliterates it tho
Exactly
than a p5 plus? nah
This all legit does not matter, because she’s not doing high data transfers
true then
Exactly what we’ve been saying lol
Like
Holy shit she was comparing optane to hdds. That’s why it was “top of the market”
every single person has said this so far but she refuses to believe it
That’s what I said so many times :/
we are NOT talking about high data transferring here LOL
It really makes no sense to buy server drives nowadays cause they’re not any faster then consumer m.2s
worrying about theoretical maxes vs what you're actually going to see, performance wise, is a recipe for disaster
Which proves my point you don’t need a high end SSD than
Then don’t get the t700
no no no
You perfectly proved my point
No matter the use case you’re still wrong lol. Intel Optane is inferior to most gen 3-4 m.2 drives
Lol
It’s outdated and also being discontinued
you do not need those drives unless your handling extreme high volumes of data transfers
@trail kayak
Which of course your not
just ran a CDM with my generic 1tb nvme ssd...
Even still consumer drives are faster so it doesn’t matter
Exactly.
i am saying i am not talking about high data tranferring because these ssds i have provided do not do high data transferring
A shitty Kingston will even be fine
Correct
So why are we talking about such high end SSDs than
the ssds i have posted are for daily everyday use
any SSD ever will perfectly be good for daily use
refer to this please
I’m aware of what that is
oh yeah! all of them are good enough sure.
They are
good so you read through then
I’ll wait to be proven wrong
@trail kayak look at this
chatgpt is not ever going to be considered a reliable source lmao
so now you know a high queue depth 1 speed is optimal
Those are good options
this does not matter for what your doing
like
Your seriously overthinking this entire thing
this doesnt tell you the queue depth
im gonna need more information on this
the what?
why the fuck do you care about queue depth?
what are the exact links
😭😭😭
just say you want to waste a bunch of money on an "expensive" ssd and call it a day 😭
It’s the number of inputs/ outputs a storage device can handle at once
the queue depth is the most important part like wut 😵💫😵💫😵💫
LOL YES IT IS
the iops changes depending on the qd (queue depth btw)
so something that is q20, or qd20 is going to be more forgiving than something that is q1 or qd1
Almost every SSD ever can handle almost all amounts of inputs any CPU can give
Which of course if your doing high data transfers, than it becomes relevant
Otherwise, we’re wasting time talking about it
Queue depth: How many input/output requests the ssd can handle. So a higher iops means higher qdepth
If your playing games, it won’t even go past 50%
you need to understand the difference between qd1 vs qd20 or even qd32
We’re talking about a boot drive
Wait what ._.
I thought this was just storage.
The optane was her choice for boot drive
Yeah lol
P5 plus boom
works
hey crazy question, mildly unrelated, whats up with ur bio? 😐
actually since boot is first thing. the drive might not have time to hit q1 speeds so maybe the q20 - q32 speeds are better for boot time
iops and qd all refer to randoms btw.
So which drive rhan
And sn850x 4TB for storage
since qd with sequential doesnt matter
can we please just settle on a drive
How often do you reboot your computer? Boot times don’t matter
please
Don’t don’t
Wdym
i saw this one too
so i have a really bad habit of leaving my pc on for months on end
even the shittest ssds can have like 3 second boot times lmao
That’s fine
SSDs are made for longevity
Lol so boot times matter even less for you
yeah because low end ssds and high end ssds all have 80 - 100 mb/s queue depth 1 speeds
This is stupid
sounds like youre aware then that it doesnt matter
dude random has tried and even gave up
I’ve never heard of queue depth and my pc is as fast as the cpu and gpu will allow 🤔
im aware, but there are like 6 ssds where this doesnt apply so its normal that most people wouldnt know
"i want to waste a bunch of money on an ssd that will provide me no benefit"
Dream just buy whatever you want and when your drives get ran all over by a $40 ssd…well we told you
Because 99999.9999999999% of SSDs can handle any and every input you give it
any ssd with a qd1 speed of 200 mb/s or higher should in theory be 200% faster than 95%+ of the entire market
slow drive for boot and fast drive for mass storage seems funny
And it’s not even using all the bandwidth for it
Whatever you do, don’t buy gen 5
In this context, I’m still right
of course we’ve maxed it up but
Even games will only load so fast so. Gen 5 game drives are a waste of money it’s a limitation on the engine and the cpu so no performance increases
Those are people who actually push them to the max
i might not just because its a bad investment. not because gen 5 is overall bad. i agree the speed isnt the reason to buy gen 5. but most motherboards offer gen 5 m.2 slots now.
and also the gen 5 offers versatility in that it allows higher capacity storage at (basically gen 4 speed) which is like who cares when you can just go 2 gen 4 ssds then and still be under the price of one gen 5 ssd.
but i guess it boils down to max mb storage. which i wont be hitting. but higher cap on one drive ultimately helps you further push that goal
Gen 4 has higher capacity. “Investing” in gen 5 won’t help.
by a bad investment what i mean is the ssd market itself in terms of financial investing similar to the gpu market in the way that you should think of it as an investment like gold etc.
but in the ssd market, its basically a lose lose situation where your investment is always a bad one meaning that no matter what ssd you get, in 5 years it will be worth much less and it only scales more after 10 years, 15 years, 20 years etc.
ssd market isnt stock market 😭
All computer components will lose their value hard
im not going to explain financial investing to a 16 year old prodigy pc builder
nobody (in their right mind) is going to buy a used SSD, ever
yeah but i havent seen anything as hard as ssds.
Which is why you shouldn’t invest in gen 5
prodigy pc builder lmao
unless the market was kind of a fluke because of m.2s and things plateau but i really dont think thats the case
should have said prodigy insane league player
i love league
it's like buying a transmission for your car. as long as it's compatible and works, buy whatever's cheapest (and still works) and don't worry about it
wait why, i feel like this is an option up my alley
i can understand not buying used hdds
i dont really know much about the used market
because SSDs have a limited lifespan, and at a certain point they'll become read only, and shortly thereafter be totally unusable
+malware
- you never know what the previous owner had on it... you don't want that.
you can't treat building a pc like stock market investing, as there is 0 return on investment in value when it comes to pc parts
but from what ive heard, isnt the lifespan so long and far out that you would never reach it anyway?
It depends on how the other person used it
ive heard of horror stories from power users who entered a writing forever catch 22 situation
how long the ssd lasts is like rolling the dice
anywhere from 5-15 years i think. but if you're constantly reading/writing to it, like say, playing games and stuff, that number will constantly be decreasing.
it depends on use case and what ssd is uses
there are those that have died a few days after use, and there are those that are still going on strong since they first came out
would you ever buy a used CVT transmission?
yeah thats what i thought too.
the biggest point of all here though, is, for a boot drive, just buy any new ssd and you will be fine
games will definitely be a constant read/write due to asset loading
be fine, sure. but i want to look at the top 5 in the market and buy the cheapest one.
this is a dumb idea
and that there is a piss poor take
lmao well too bad cause thats what we are gonna do and anyone helping is going to have to deal with it
like i suggested, an sn570 would make an ideal boot ssd
have fun overpaying for no reason 🤷♀️
We are all here to keep you from making bad financial decisions
no prob 👍
sn570 btw as a boot drive
that is absolutely not why you are here
it is part of it
i havent taken any financial advice in here lol
you are here cause ure cute
:3
Yes it is. Don’t tell me why I’m here
careful, read his bio 
What about it
then like i noted earlier, you're being a fucking idiot
im sure he understands sillyness
?
i literally got the vibes just from talking
i'm sure a <@&750150305383186585> would love to explain whats wrong with your bio
What’d he say 
this is all useless
It’s just a bio, ig it’s either a joke or an opinion, can’t do much about that
It’s my opinion lmao. You got a problem with it?
Nah , everyone’s got their own opinion, it ain’t my problem
he never brought it up, never expressed his feelings, dont see why you gotta be so pressed about it
it does explain all the roleplay pfp. usually people against the community will make 10 + profiles and flood chats and play bad cop / good cop to perpetuate their agenda
This is my only account in this server
wat
anyways, there's no point in buying anything other than a cheap gen3/4 nvme ssd as a boot drive
like, at all, really
Well it doesn’t have to be cheap
Doesn't have to be, but still
Oh we’re still on this SSD issue
definitely older than 27 tho

This is like one of the best gen 3 drives, look how fast it boots
If you didn’t know, boot time doesn’t matter
It does to me
Me?
that gets beaten by a sn570 tbh
since when does the sn570 beat a 970 evo
oh no! anyway
yeah but then sn770 is the same price
look up benchmark tests, the sn570 outlasts a 970 evo/evo plus
especially in large file transfers
i got a shitty entry gen 3 drive and i am more than happy with it 
that dram cache is totally pointless on a nvme drive
We do not tolerate the intolerant. Either change your bio and never mention it here again, or leave
I mean 970 evo has 2x the tbw
so why shouldnt i go super high cache route
cause tehyre unavailable
I doubt even high end pc’s use those
and the sn570 still outlasts it, hell if you get a sn580 instead you basically get a sn570 with a cache that's 100gb instead of 10-12gb
so the 131 gb cache ssd isnt real :c
i mean its real, but idk where you can buy that
First of all, I never mentioned it in the first place. Do I have to remove it?
you're not doing production work, simples, you will not be doing anything that takes advantage of it
Yes
The 980 non pro is better which is worse than the 970 evo iirc
980 uses the 970's controller
and the kid that called everyone human traffickers and wasted everyones time and was an asshole got a 5 minute mute 💔
i was considering the sn850
honestly if you just ||shush about it, and dont mention it||||||, and forget about it , i dont think most people will care ||
honestly a decent drive but not worth it in your case
might as well
some people just buy it if it's a high end system
like fair enough
like crucial p5 plus, sn850x, kc3000, 980 pro all are high end drives
high end gen 4 drives with dram cache
yea even better
if it's a gen 4 motherboard and you have a big budget, make use of the mobo
sure if you're doing video edit, but as a boot drive/general storage, nope
do people have a seperate boot drive or
easier ways to make use of the speed
yes some people do
huh strange, cause most pc lists i see here just have one 2tb drive
because some people like to combine it all on one drive
like 100 bucks isnt even that much for for a 2tb gen 4 drive, i bought a sata for more 
and honestly some don't have a full grasp on data management
we're at a point you can almost get a 4tb ssd for that
well at the time it seemed like a good deal , it was like a year or more ago
it's kind of a preference thing too, some people just buy them cause they like them for whatever reason , like trident z ram
oh so these are the only 2 m.2 nvme ssds that have the highest cache of about 4gb
its weird, ram is becoming more like storage, and storage is becoming more like ram
yea literally no one uses those even in high end pcs
nah ram is also cheaper

so what are high cache ssds used for then
i think i found that fuzedrive ssd
it is an slc ssd.
i think its the only one
production based video editing and rendering, high end 3d rendering
architecture
things that would make use of it's performance and nature
dram cache is nice on a drive, but not always needed
it seems like its similar to sequential speeds in terms of what is helps with but it actually does more
so the cache is definitely more important than base sequential speed
your specific use case and wants will never take use of that much dram cache
but it honestly seems more important than random r/w speed too
for only a few specific uses yes, for you, no
since almost all ssds have very similar random 4kqd1 speeds
if you dont know, do you really need it
it's really not

just watch this itll probably help
if it's a 4090 tier budget , may as well just get a nice gen 4 like a KC3000, 980 pro or like p5 plus
when gaming using an nvme drive vs sata 2.5
I had a similar budget and i got 2 990 pro and 2 980 pro
how much should your dram buffer be
thats a lot of ssds but sure
several gen4 drives there btw showing that it has no performance gains over a gen 3 drive let alone a sata 2,5
if they really want it that much , just get a gen 4
depends on use case
do you know the amounts for each use case
similar thing with cpu coolers, some people go mad when you put in an aio 
why not
whyd you need like 6-8tb of storage
not off hand but i can tell you straight away, for gaming having dram or not makes no sense at all on a nvme drive
p5 plus looks good too
slc cache, tlc nand, dram buffer, is what i was always told
i agree but this is definitely a quote lol
for hobbiest video editing 1-2gb dram cache is fine, any more is welcomed
3d modelling big model that are over 1gb most of the time plus rendering big scene... and video edition in 4k or sometime 8k
i did hear those things seperately but nah not really a quote
all reasons why a gen4 drive is needed over a gen 3 drive tbh
though in dreams case, totally not needed, and wasted performance on them
it's fine if you got a big enough budget
Ye ik if not that i wouldnt have get those
it's the same thing with aio's or expensive rgb ram , if you want it buy it, but some people get mad if you put in something that isnt a 20 dollar air cooler
even if you got the budget tbh, if the use case doesn't need it, it's not worth it
they did say video editing so
aio's it could be argued that as they're more efficient for heat transfer it's worth the spend
Ye
i mean look at the 13900k, it thermal throttles on anything less than a 360mm aio
ive seen tear downs, inside theyre really a lot smaller than they appear
and it's hobiest level, meaning gen3 drive with decent cache will work fine for them
Ye i got a 13900k i tested with my friend 280mm aio it was hard to handle it a 360mm is fine
found this just now from ltt forum Your main OS drive is better to be on a DRAM ssd. Storing games would be fine on a dramless SSD. Video editing likes fast ssds.
yeah, same but it's the quality you got to look at tbh
it's why 360mm aio is the minimum for it tbf
true
420mm or a custom loop is better
Ye that what i got on it
that cpu is just another thing, jayztwocents did a custom loop and the 13900k still got to 100c almost in cinebench
My case dont fit that so ye
Cause he probably did it bad lmao
he also has a 560mm rad that could keep it respectably cooled if he wanted to use it
hes done more of those than i can count, he did it fine
he just tuned it after and it was fine
Then why after all his custom build he almost everytime post a vid call "i made a mistake" or something like that
nah, his liquid cooling vids are basically the go to for learning to do custom loops
because it points to somewhere else there was a mistake during the vid half the time
cause it's usually something like delidding gone wrong or like he scratched the motherboard , it's just for views
Lmao
omfg we are back to ssds?
we never got off it
Ironically if she researched it it would be more time efficient 
Prefers to buy an inferior drive from 2021
Even Gen4 NVMe is overkill for most consumer workloads. Not saying don't buy it, especially since it's kinda the defacto standard these days, but it's one of those "unless you know you need it, you probably don't really need it" things. I just buy whatever brand name NVMe drive (with DRAM cache) is on sale these days.
fr ^
Samsung? Nah
Sn850x is tge choice threshold also a whole excel sheet if you google ssd tier list
It has most ssds in existence I'm pretty sure
It sorts them in order or high to low end and so on
yeah im not actually prioritizing gen 4 or 5.
there are gen 3 drives that perform better than some gen 4 and 5.
but i actually dont care what is / isnt overkill
the gen speed is still just an additive trait
its the whole drive itself since different drives have different advantages
I don’t think any gen 3 drive will out perform a gen 5 drive, unless made to specifically be a slow piece of shit
almost every optane drive is 3x4
there is also an 8tb nas hdd that out performs almost every ssd on the market
Well youre wrong
^^
Just because gen 5 has higher bandwidth that doesn't mean a gen 5 ssd will use it all
im pretty sure a gen 3 can outperform something that overheats itself
A high end gen 3 drive uses all the bandwidth available to it a normal gen 5 drive won't use all the available bandwidth bc it just fucking cant
fr
It'll overheat before getting to gen 3 speeds lol
exactly
gen 5 has huge potential tho. and it already shows on the t700 its just a little overpriced for what it is which is just a higher cap lossless gen 4 ssd.
you can basically have a regular gen 5 ssd still be tlc and perform at higher rates as if it were a 2tb gen 4 drive. its not really faster but its the fastest 4tb drive.
this allows you to go one 4tb drive instead of two 2tb drives. gen 4 ssds that get to 4tb and 8 tb start using qlc to acheive those capacities where with gen 5 qlc is not needed.
still minor and not worth +$200
its just too early
but a 4tb gen 4 ssd is actually going to not perform as well as a 2tb gen 4 ssd
well duh
i honestly thought at first that cap didnt play a part in that
but it definitely does
a truck at full capcity wont go as fast as the same model thats emty
its more than just tlc and qlc tho
im gonna consider
4tb t700 gen 5x4
2tb 990 pro gen 4x4
2tb sn850x
1tb p5 plus
i have more that im looking into
here are the most popular drives. which isnt a surprise
maybe ill just do a 1tb p5 plus for a boot drive. idk tho
that is not showing most popular drives
yayyy
damn its been 2 weeks already?
now pokey stop undoing all our work
NOO
POKEY
STOP
NO POKEY
POKEY
STOP
eh aactually imma let this play out
keep doing whatever imma go afk
im pretty sure dream has you blocked anyways
alr
gt 710
just buy like a dozen
yes
infinite performance glitch
yes
these are the best for 1k
fr
wdym the 1080 is actually 5k
thats a steal for a 1080
and you gonna ignore that ati card
lmao
1080ti is like 150 used
yep
way less
No, just no. You’re literally just trolling
duh
it's just an ssd, you want the best get a 980 pro / kc3000 or those gen 5 aorus ones , no big deal
Enterprise is made for enterprise, consumer is made for everyday. Getting enterprise anything for a gaming pc is beyond stupid. I’ll talk to you after you stop
Until then, shut the hell up
Give proof of this making a difference
lmfao
yes
I think JayzTwoCentz actually did that in a video lol
lmao
ok, now youre just actually lying
you are the one asserting that fact, you back it up
his hw finna be laate
yes it is
all i ask is that you show me credible benchmarks where different environments affect ssd performance
cheese
then im going to assume that statement is false
whats your favorite game
<@&750150305383186585>
please do something about this user. they are not contributing anything to the thread, and introducing non-tech related topics (again).
uh oh
ok
csgo ig
what happened to dream anyways
she probably went to sleep or something
she used to (or maybe still does idk) sleep 90 minutes a day because of this. dont try to wake her up
@trail kayak
Facts
?
lemme see ur inventory 😠
Why are you looking at my steam profile
either one
cuz im bored mafaka
whyd you put it on your dc profile then?
Can we keep discussions relevant?
So people who I’m in Vc with can friend me to play with me?
nah
make inv public or i nuke you
Bruh, what?
yayy
Why do you care
Like genuinely there’s nothing good in it
plus i barely see a public steam acc on here
Fine ima just send pics of it cus I don’t wanna go through the hassle of making it public
its sad how many people link private steam accs on here
alr
🙂
yippee
I told you lol
xenoreaper is stacked as fuck
K?
Cus you have stuff worth way more than $100
i do?
i dont keep track
wait i DOOO?
HUH?
bro xenoreaper inv private
Just look at your invin
Also move to dms let’s keep this forum on topic
right
This is the topic
Tbf the discussion is useless at this point
Real
I get she needs help with all this but at some point it’s getting repetitive
Like what is this the 4th post?
i think so
But still. I don’t want random discussions to make it worse
?
3rd
no, random discussion good
am i going to have to report you too?
For random chat go there
or #off-topic
Yes
wait thats a thing here
This forem is for someone building a pc not random discussion
Yes she has made way to many forums but that dosent change that this ain’t #public-chat or like creeper said #off-topic
Bruh bread da best
but yeah you got a point
nah bread incident was something else
You got 2 options
-
Stop using this as a general chat and go to #public-chat or #off-topic
-
Creeper and I will report
uh oh
Dude
says bread is weird
has bread role
shhh
Real
its not wierd its just getting repetitive
@noble maple also please stop DMing me random things
Final reminder
alr chill
also nice new pfp
i never thought about this. but i have the money to be able to.
i did the same thing with nintendo 3dses
for ips vs tn screens
i bought like 25 n3dses
i wouldn't recommend it, as its not worth the wildly inflated price
