Any drive that is faster will load most games faster but less benefit from an SSD to NVME than HDD to SSD but it make ZERO difference to gameplay or FPS.

You really do not have much a clue about anything you have said in this thread and I am an Intel fan (was AMD diehard back in early 2000's till Intel C2D).

Yes it will - level transitions and loads within games will be faster just like the initial game loading times are quicker. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
 
ZZZZzzzz, unsubbed too much pish.

P.S that is basically what I said you fool, it will still not make your games run any faster FPS wise and the loading benefit if any will be nothing like HDD to SDD gains. :rolleyes:

Read all of it. Pretty much every game Nvme 4 is fastest.

You see this character -----> 1, that took longer to type than the time any Gen 4.0 drive will save you loading any game currently available. However continue throwing money at everything, and spending the most on every component and that will give you more knowledge.

Still faster though isn't it. A few seconds off game loads and level launches many times a day is worth it to me. And as mentioned above Direct IO and RTX IO is coming which may give even larger benefits.
 
I have 4x 2TB Sabrent rocket plus in Raid 0 and it imperceptible compared to a high end SSD for loading times.

Yes, you are right. Is that what you want to read, confirmation that what you are doing is utterly pointless?

Don't bother responding to be fair, you wouldn't want to waste those precious seconds, as it'll wipe out months of the time you'd have saved with your faster drive loading games. :p :rolleyes:

Good idea - will do that across 2 drives when I reinstall as anything I care about is backed up on NAS anyway. Every little helps. Faster disks make a measurable difference as per the above even if right now its not a vast percentage difference for game loading. It will be more noticeable for copying and installing though.

Ordered mine as likely the fastest gaming CPU money can buy at least until AMD release something new. Surprised it's not mentioned here that Rocket Lake is for pre-order sale on the OC site. Get em while you can!

Considering Rocket Lake is effectively EOL, considering If its faster in games we would be looking at 1-3 FPS, Considering Intel tigged the NVME testing and considering 8 cores for £500+ i think i will stick with AMD at least till next year (probably longer)

Every CPU is effectively end of life in a year or so. That's only £80 more than a 5800X and if it's faster than seems reasonable. And let's see in ~ 10 days.

Every CPU is EOL in a year or so but not 6 months like Rocket Lake. At best i suspect 11900K will be on par with 5800x so i think based on that £80 is to much even if it managed to beat it by 1-3fps, also 5900x can be had for £540 if you shop around

Such as? All the reviews of the leaked benchmarks seem to support what they are claiming. ~ 19% IPC performance increase for instance.

Yeah OK. All of the reviews, actual real-world benchmarks and user groups are all saying it's slower than 10900K. Especially with the massive backward step with memory speeds and latency.

But do stay within your little bubble of ignorant bliss if it makes you feel safer.

Oh stop picking on people.

Let him believe what he wants to believe/buy. You’re coming across as having a real attitude issue with anyone wanting a Z590/11th gen CPU. It’s weird.
 
So I take it you've not been following the thread then? Or others like it? You don't see the trolling and fanboyism going on? You also don't see everybody else with half a brain retorting the utter fud posted about Rocket Lake? The only issue I have is people trolling the forums and talking utter crap, and if somebody is going to enter a discussion and post crap then they should expect to get called out on it.

If you think that's weird then fair enough, but don't you think it's weirder for people to just completely ignore facts and empirical evidence because it doesn't align with their beliefs? Wilful ignorance is dangerous, however melodramatic it is to say when talking about silly things such as CPUs.

Well then I will eBay it in 6 months. I did consider a 5800X or better but as I'm currently on 10900KF the transition path to Rocket Lake is easier, so I held off despite there being something faster for the last few months.
