Blazing fast speeds as expected from a PCIe 5.0 NVMe drive. Even then, it's one of the faster ones.It's noticeable when booting and saving loading data. If your playing video games the only difference you will really notice is saving and loading data. The drive does not improve of render speeds. However, games that support DirectStorage might see a slight noticeable improvement.Interested in to see it's longevity with the level of heat that it can get to.Great as a main drive, maybe not quite worth it if all you are using it for is install games.

Superb...fast and stable

real good Pci 5.0 hard drive.

This SSD is insanely fast! I have another Gen 3 M.2 as well as this so i also decided to copy a file over to this new drive I first did 1GB but it was instant so I decided to copy a 30GB Video file just so i could see it copy and see the transfer rate in windows but it was so fast I couldn't see it. the 30GB file took windows about 5 seconds to calculate the data to copy but then once it calculated it it literally took 1 second to copy over 30GB with no exaggeration. Maybe one day all my drives with be M.2 drives like this. I have it connected to an asus X870 motherboard with a heatsink included on the board and its now been installed running constantly for 7 days and its at 49c which is a normal, so I'm really impressed with it.

When it worked, it was brilliant; Much faster then my P3 plus that it was meant to replace.Unfortunately my computer seemed to suffer from random crashes if left idle (no matter what power settings I was able to change).When in use it behaved perfectly...unless I was downloading large files (new games etc) and then it crashed the PC (possibly overheat? The fault logs never had a fault listed).I could happily play Cyberpunk for several hour straight. But if I was browsing the web and left it alone for 5 minutes to make a cuppa it would have already rebooted my PC or sent it to the bios screen by the time I came back.PC is once again behaving normally now that it has the P3 back in it.A real shame, but I had to return it.Maybe in the future with a firmware update/revised edition it'll behave better?

It's amazing 😍But expensive 🫰😔
