Put this in my rig as my primary drive for games -- runs very well and stays decently cool to my surprise. It does not have an dedicated memory BUT it still reads and writes with ease. If you're looking for a good budget friendly option in a world of overpriced tech this will check most boxes.
More food for thought -- I have a 1080 and was using a SSD for storage. I tried playing Starfield and the game was horrendous, really, just unplayable. I bought this drive and I can now enjoy flying through space with all of Bethesdas bugs. A night and day difference.

Best SSD ever

This 1TB SSD is likely the best choice due to its combination of speed, durability, and value. With faster read and write speeds than traditional hard drives, it boosts system performance, reduces load times, and improves file transfers. The 1TB capacity offers ample storage for large files and applications, and modern features like wear leveling ensure a long lifespan. Additionally, its price-to-performance ratio makes it a great value, offering high capacity and speed without breaking the bank.

Amazing ssd was 100x better literally than the one I had and the performance does not disappoint if you’re using this for gaming I’d recommend faster loading times are a need in a competitive game.

Made the switch from an old HDD to an internal SSD. Wow, its amazing. Should have switched sooner. Super easy to install, beyond fast speeds. No real complaints!

The 990 Evo line is a very welcome departure from Samsung in terms of price to performance. The 980 and 970 Evos were overpriced, but the 990 Evo and 990 Evo Plus offer excellent performance at half the price of the Pro. Running two of these in my current build and I couldn't be happier with the performance.

This new SSD is soo much better compared to what I've had before. It has 2 times the reading and writing speed (5600/4900 around there)as well as you can game much better. It's also much more reliable than a lot of other ssds which makes it good for long term use.

For the money, it’s pretty great. There are a few good reviews that compare it to the 980 & 990 or WD blacks, but when it comes to gaming, they are pretty much ALL on par with each other, including this one. I also like that it’s PCIE Gen 4 & 5.
Trust me, get it and save money on a 990 pro if you’re just gaming.

This isn't as fast as the Evo Plus or Pro models, but gets the job done for most users as it's still much faster than a traditional SSD (let alone a spinning HDD), and its lower price point compared to its big brothers certainly helps if you're on a budget too.

I recently installed the Samsung 990 EVO 1TB SSD in my system, and I’m really impressed with the performance. The speeds are super fast—up to 5,000MB/s—and everything from booting up to loading apps feels a lot quicker now. Installation was easy, and it works perfectly with my Gen 4 setup. It's also Gen 5 ready, which makes it a future-proof choice. Overall, very happy with this upgrade!

Works perfectly! The hard drive had died in our son's computer and we needed to replace it. This is actually the next size up and was an amazing deal. Geek squad got it installed and the computer is like new!
