Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Some solid options to look at: SSDs • Samsung 990 EVO (if close in price)
- WD Black SN7100, WD Blue SN5100, Samsung 990 evo, Crucial T710 - are all great and about equal, effectively whatever is cheapest per GB out of those.
- I found the p310 for 10€ less, as well as the Samsung 990 EVO and Acer Predator GM7000 all for pretty much the same price.
- 990 Evo is perfect. Don’t even worry about it. Source: That’s the drive I’m running.
- Try to save some money on... SSD (possible options: Samsung 990 EVO PLUS or 990 EVO, Seagate FireCuda 530R or 530, Kingston NV3, Silicon Power UD90)
Cons
- I really don't notice any difference in my day to day usage. The plus version would be better, but I doubt you would notice the difference outside of some specific tasks.
- For the motherboard, ram and ssd go for the cheapest one of all the options u provide, doesn't really matter for performance.
- I had wanted the Samsung 990 Evo 2TB but it appears to be OOS everywhere.
