    I mean that if you have an old i7 920 system your storage performance will be very different to a new threadripper 2950x system.

     

    I suggest you do some of your own research as it feels like you don't understand allot of basics.

    i have one 4770k

    Like I say, it doesn't feel like you are understanding whats being communicated.

     

    It might be 2 seconds on one game/level/scenario and another figure in another game.

     

    It also depends on the spec of the rest of your PC.

    WHAT  YOU MEAN depends on the spec of the rest of MY PC.??

    I think you are going around in circles and not taking information in, the difference between the two is so minimal in games that you won't notice the difference.

     

    Just buy one, neither is a bad choice, however I would personally go for the Samsung.

    so  the  time between nvme and sata3  is  only 2 seconds?in games?

    If you're only going to use it for games, then nvme is a waste of money. Although hypocritically I am going to buy a 970 Pro soon simply to put OW and Apex on it.

     

    I am bias but I would always buy Samsung over Crucial, I suggest you research it but i'm sure the 860 Evo is faster and better quality.

     860 Evo is faster   from  crucialmx500 in  gaming?

    I think this question has already been answered but my two cents: SSD is much more affordable now, there's not really a good reason to buy a HD other than for storage of items which you need but dont often use.

     

    Personally I have 1x 1TB Samsung 860 Pro, 1x 500GB 850 Evo, 1x250GB 850 Evo on my gaming PC and I don't use any HD

    which is faster ,, better in quality and etc?

    The earlier ones were prone to a ticking, I had that with one of my earlier Blacks. The newer ones don't have that. 

    My 4TB is about 3 years old now and its just fine. 

    Which from these 2 is better to buy? which is faster ,, better in quality and etc?

    why most people prefer the samsungs against crucial?

    how much endurance has the evo 860 2TB and mx500 2tB?

    also in performance and speed which is better?

    evo 860 2TB or mx500 2tB?

    can you tell me please?

    Personally I just use a WD Black 4TB for my games. I have it partitioned into 1TB which stores all my personal data and windows profile/appdata, and 3TB partition for my games which is about 2TB full. Many modern games pre-render stages/scenes so you don't really notice the loading times. The biggest differences you're typically going to notice are when you try to load large dynamic open world games. 

     

    A few games i've noticed the load time on are Rise of the Tomb Raider and Rust. But i haven't found the benefit overall enough to justify the price of a 2TB SSD which still wouldn't fit my whole active game library. A 2TB SSD still sells for at least $550 in my country while a 4TB Black drive is less than $300

    Hello, first time poster here.

     

    I just did a few tests with Final Fantasy XIV Stormblood Benchmark (for those who don't know, it has a loading time benchmark). Here are the results.

     

    Samsung 970 Pro 512GB NVMe

      Scene #1    1.633 sec
      Scene #2    2.325 sec
      Scene #3    1.737 sec
      Scene #4    2.740 sec
      Scene #5    4.652 sec
      Scene #6    0.956 sec
    Total Loading Time    14.046 sec

     

    Samsung 850 EVO SATA 250 x2 Raid 0

    Loading Times by Scene
      Scene #1    1.891 sec
      Scene #2    2.510 sec
      Scene #3    1.860 sec
      Scene #4    2.994 sec
      Scene #5    5.375 sec
      Scene #6    1.075 sec
    Total Loading Time    15.707 sec

     

    WD Black HDD 7200 RPM (drive is kinda old and 99% full so I think it's especially slow. Should probably be faster if it's a new, empty drive)

    Loading Times by Scene
      Scene #1    8.836 sec
      Scene #2    7.554 sec
      Scene #3    7.001 sec
      Scene #4    9.182 sec
      Scene #5    16.503 sec
      Scene #6    3.348 sec
    Total Loading Time    52.429 sec

     

    And just in case someone wants to see results for a RAM Disk (SoftPerfect Ram Disk 3.4.8)

      Scene #1    1.294 sec
      Scene #2    1.908 sec
      Scene #3    1.429 sec
      Scene #4    2.230 sec
      Scene #5    3.655 sec
      Scene #6    0.786 sec
    Total Loading Time    11.303 sec

     

    So a decrease 15.7 to 14.0 seconds is still about 11% difference. In another test I was doing with the same FFXIV benchmark, it got about 14% difference. So I think there's still a difference from SATA SSD to NVMe. From those youtube comparison videos, I'd like to say it's more like 5-10% difference. Some people say you're not gonna feel the difference. Yeah, I guess that's true, but some people probably won't feel the difference between playing at 60fps and 54fps, but 10% is 10%. Probably not worth the premium just to get a NVMe just to shave off 2 seconds from a game, but if you're building a new computer, NVMe is probably nice to have.

     

    But for the love of god, please don't play on a HDD.

    so  the  time between nvme and sata3  is  only 2 seconds?in games?

    Roughly, the textures will load faster with the nvme 970 evo and so will saves but i don't notice it much unless it creates stutter or takes more than 15 minutes to load a save.

     alot of people say that nvme  970 and 860 evo in gaming thereisnt big difference.

     

     

  10. 1 minute ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    Yes, it's way faster!, u won't notice it's speed much in games though unless it's loading a save and/or loading textures. You will definately feel it's speed in video editing etc though.

    you mean that in  games  the nvme with the sata 3 860  have the same speed?

  11. 4 minutes ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    The 860 evo is better in gaming and...

    the 860 evo has a sequential write speed of 520MB/s and a sequential read of 550MB/s whilst the mx500 has a sequential write speed of 510MB/s and a sequential read of 560MB/s. So the 860 evo is faster in writes but a tiny bit slower in reads but by barely any.

    in  gaming we need  the reads corect?

     

    also one nvme 970  evo  is faster  from one sata 3 860 evo?  in  gaming and etc?

    and  why  you believe  that  860 evo is better in gaming  from mx500? for 1 sec loading difference?

  12. 1 minute ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    The 860 evo is faster but not by too much, i've got the mx500 500gb version and it's not too bad. I'd go for the 860 EVO as it's got faster raw speeds and is more popular so if you have problems it's easier to sort out. They have similar build quality but the 860 evo is just a bit more 'premium' feeling.

    IN   GAMING WHICH IS BETTER?860 evo OR MX500?

     

    And when  you say  that  860 evo is faster but not by too much  what  you mean?

    how fast is 860 evo  from mx500?

  13. 1 minute ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    It may have faster speeds in some tasks such as: video editing, loading times for texture heavy games, booting etc.

    Which from these 2 is better to buy? which is faster ,, better in quality and etc?

    why most people prefer the samsungs against crucial?

    how much endurance has the evo 860 2TB and mx500 2tB?

     

    also in performance and speed which is better?

    evo 860 2TB or mx500 2tB?

     

    can you tell me please?

    I would personally go for the WD black as i've had better experiences with WD (i've had 5 of their hard drives, they are all still working and are atleast 6 years old, whereas...i got a seagate barracuda and had to RMA it within a week.). They both have similar performance but the WD black may pull ahead in some tasks.

    what  you mean  WD black may pull ahead in some tasks.??

     

    what  you mean?

  15. 4 minutes ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    They are faster than the standard WD Blue drives, they are more gaming/performance orientated...but they come at a higher cost.

    I'd just get a higher capacity 7200RPM drive UNLESS i had the money for it. So as long as it's 7200RPM, it should be fine. The only times an ssd feels faster (for me) is in booting and loading/opening apps.

    which is faster  from these 2?

  16. 1 minute ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

    Yeah, those speeds are fine for gaming. The only downside is loading. Sometimes in GTA V, i get a bit of stutter as it's constantly loading lots of textures but that's the only thing. Loading times don't bother me, it's like the game saying...go toilet and get a snack!

    what is  your  opinion  for  black drives?

  17. 5 minutes ago, Jacobtechtips? said:

     

    Hey m8,

    Those hard drives should be fine for storing lots of games (i'd go for the WD performance drive, just because i trust WD a bit more),

    It'll play games fine but it'll just take a bit longer to load.

    And...I have a 500gb ssd and it's speed is ~500-600MB/s so your current hard drive isn't too bad.

    this photos is from my hardisk and not from ssd

    the reads and writes  from my hardisk is  ok? this i mean

     

    also  what is  your  opinion  for  black drives?

    Going from a hard drive to a sata SSD is a major improvement in load time

     

    Going past a Sata SSD isn't worth it because it's like going from a 10 second load to 9 seconds with NVME vs 30+ on a hard drive

    you mean that one ssd sata 3 in  gaming is not fast as NVME?  in  gaming?
