Hello guys, I gave my little brother my old PC and he wants to add a new storage there. I am thinking between an SSD sata and M.2 PCIe and wanted to ask you guys is it worth to pay little bit extra for the M.2.

1. Kingston A400 960GB SSD - 89.99
2. Patriot Viper VPN100 1TB M.2 2280 PCIe - 128.99
3. Corsair Force MP510 960GB M.2 2280 PCIe - 139.99
4. Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB M.2 2280 PCIe - 158.99

He is only using this PC for games and I am not sure if its worth paying extra for the M.2 and if it is, is the Patriot one a good option?

Thank you

Well what does the rest of the system look like? If it is a core duo 2 with a GTX770 then M2 is not worth it, but might be really crucial to getting the best out of a beast setup? Some more context?
