Gen 3 v gen 4

[bris]

I am just in the process of putting my new build together and I will be wanting 2 NVME drives.

Outside of benchmarks will the speed difference gen 3 and gen 4 in real world terms be noticeable to the average person to justify the extra cost? I will be using the drives to fill an extensive Steam library.

Thanks guys, my original build cost had gen4 drives with a ryzen 5 3600x, i will now use gen 3 and can up the ryzen to a 7 3700x.

I do already have sata ssd's but will be putting other stuff on them, like the music library etc so they will get used regardless. The drives I will get will be needed as it's the old style hard drives I will be replacing.
