Starfal WINTERLORD said: Can't wait to run my windows on one these drives although it wont make windows faster however I think it might do somthing for games everyone said pce5 wasnt worth it but I had gotten one an what ya know it does increase load times for some games dont know bout fps games but civ 7 is one an theres several others to many to list That is when they hit mainstream and when you can actualy afford one the ai build-out is like the worst thing for people on a budget I got Gen 5, top 2 best SSD and i dont see a faster windows booting or opening of apps. Compared to my 990 pro from samsung. Same thing for games. All my games load still slowly. I wait for world of warcraft around 10 seconds. Sometimes 15. Same for Assasins creed games. They all take 25-50 seconds per game. At best, maybe i cut 1 or 2 seconds. Nothing that i really feel. From 50 to 47… it still is 45+ seconds of waiting. A really long time. Same for WoW. 10-15? Down from 16-7? Still long. Reply
jonathan1683 Looks amazing I haven't seen a piece of exciting hardware i wanted in a while like this. Too bad it's for enterprise and I think the whole company is enterprise only now. What a shame, I wonder how long it will take for enterprise to run out of money on hardware for AI. I heard Altman is strapped for and bleeding cash. Reply
dosmastrify Stupid question. These look passively cooled. So why are we jumping from that to water cooled? We have technology called A FAN Reply

Game engines in general are not optimized for anything beyond PCIe 3.0 drive speeds atm. As usual in the game world, software development lags behind hardware releases. But its kind of a chicken & egg thing. Review article over at TPU shows several game engines & the barely noticeable differences in game load times between M.2 NVME PCIe 5.0, 4.0, 3.0 & SSDs devices.
