Thanks Billy TallisYou would need a PCIe 4.0 SSD to see any benefit from the PCIe 4.0 capability on the upcoming Zen 2 processors. The first PCIe 4.0 consumer SSDs should be out before the end of the year. For smaller capacities (probably 512GB and below), there should be little or no speed loss by running them with gen4 x2 links (equivalent to gen3 x4), while 1TB and especially 2TB drives will actually be able to use the extra bandwidth beyond gen4x2/gen3x4.
The MP600 will be capable of up to 4950MB/s for sequential reads and 4250MB/s for sequential writes how sweet that is next we need some good motherboard support.
damn that looks nice and perfect, ill take 2. why worry about the temp when its ahuge heatsink.
phillyman36 said:The seq speeds are faster but what about the other benches? There is some increase in speed but not as much as the seq. Are these new pcie4 nvme drives going to open apps faster, load game noticeably quicker? What usage cases benefit from the new drives?
Looks like a %70 increase in r/w performance ?
You should notice, e.g., if a winrar compression time is reduced from 100 min to 30.
I have a question as far as the new pcie4 drives looking at these 2 benchmarks

IMO, PCIE 4.0 is not going to be impactful for awhile. For day-to-day use, you will not see anything move faster as not much pushes the current NVMe drives, especially with gaming.
In the leaked video, shared by Wall Street Journal writer Takashi Mochizuki on Twitter, Sony also demonstrates Spider-Man zipping through New York City. While the game sometimes pauses on the PlayStation 4 Pro, waiting for the environment to be generated around him, the same scene renders flawlessly and continuously on the "next-generation" hardware. This shows how SSDs are much better suited to dealing with high-bandwidth data transfers.
