Corsair MP600 1 TB or Gigabyte AORUS 1 TB

I have some extra cash, so I am looking to buy another NVME M.2 drive.

I already have a 480GB MP510 which I got on offer a while back, this is being used for my OS.

There is £7 difference between the 2 drives, so do I just buy the cheaper Aorus drive?

The Gigabyte scores slightly better on benchmark's

What would you use the drive for, that would require pcie4 sustained transfer speeds?
Random speeds are largely the same as sata3 drives so may not see much gains...if any
