Which 2tb NVME drive?

Looking to upgrade the 500gb Samsung 970 Evo Plus in my son's PC to a larger drive, any recommendations please?

It'll be going in a B550/5700X/3070 system, and will be used 90% of the time for gaming.

It doesn't have to be the fastest drive, but something at least as fast as the 970 would be ideal, thanks in advance.

Western Digital BLACK SN850X, 2tb is cheap enough and one of the fastest SSD's.

Seconded on the SN850X. I'm buiilding a new PC at the moment and the only reason I didn't buy one for it was because I had an SN750 in stock.

Thanks for the replies, the 850 looks to be the fastest drive out there, but I've just pulled the trigger on a 2tb Corsair MP600 Pro NH for £84 delivered, couldn't pass up the £30'ish saving.

Yeah, good choice at that price.
