High speed ssd

[the gamer that is bad]

I am wanting to get a 512gb ssd for $60-$65 and my main priority is speed but I don’t know what ssd to pick

For a good PCIe 3.0 500GB drive, you're a little low. You can find them all day for $75. $60-65 puts you into compromise territory, where you're going to get drives with no DRAM (slow) or QLC (slow).

The A80 is a really fast SSD for the price it's listed at. The SN750 is above your budget. amazon.com/gp/product/B07MH2P5ZD/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

What is your current SSD? Not many SSD's ran at SATA 2 speeds........ thats very, very old.

 

For normal consumer application, any SSD with a DDR cache (any SSD that is from a name brand and isn't super cheap) will have this, and they will all work about the same since a normal user would never feel the difference in day to day workloads.

If its if a SATA 2 SSD, does your PC have SATA 3?

 

But yea, basically anything would be a good option. I am a fan of the WD Blue SSD's, if not a Samsung; Samsung is basically the go to.
