Caporegime
Ok looking into a new build.
Everything i have is very "Year 2011" Sandy bridge p67.
Are M.2 drives worth considering for OS and a few select games?
From my basic understanding they come at conventional Sata 6g speeds and then there is some that use the pci-e lanes that go at very fast speeds R/W.
Do they impact on Say, a graphic cards performance or other devices connected to pci-e. My soundcard is also pci-e. Im looking at a 1080gtx
Im so out of the loop. Technology has stepped past me a bit i need to catch up.
This seems to be about the right price to size ratio that should exhibit some serious noticeablespead boost but not just willy waving.
Otherwise it seems like conventional sata cabled SSDs seem to be still way cheaper GB/£$
Anyone shed light on this. Is it just not worth putting money towards this and consider it elsewhere towards i5>i7 better gfx etc etc.
