How would i benefit from nvme?

Just pondering the how's. My boot drive is still an ssd and after bios boot screen it only takes 10secs max before I can use the system.
Yes it's tidier looking and faster but I've no use for faster. Is the gaming experience that much better from an nvme?

There are a couple of games that can push a SATA SSD now, I believe due to asset streaming, but for most cases, you're looking at a few secs of load time.

If you are after a new bigger drive for games, keep your SSD for OS and buy a NVME purely for games.

NVME can usually be cheaper than SSD now.
