Choosing M.2 gen3 or gen4 with same price range
Go to solution
Solved by Shimejii,
Depends on what you are using it for and what platform you have. For most people getting a Gen 3 NVME is pretty much all they will ever need. Gen 4 drives still dont have much of a use yet, same with Gen 5. Direct storage still has yet to end up in more then a handful of titles. Load times are not an issue on PC with them.
If they are they same price, get the best quality drive, typically with Dram cache. a Gen 4 Drive without Dram cache vs a Gen 3 Drive with Dram Cache, ill generally just choose the dram Cache one. Although again it all depends on the use case.
Is it your boot drive, Game Drive, Scratch drive, Video storage drive? Cause Intel Optane may also be a choice here.
