850 EVO vs NVME SSDs Win 10 boot time

[hieutrungvu94]

Hi guys, I'm currently using 850 EVO 250gb as my boot drive. It does provide fast boot time, about 17-18 sec from hitting the power button to the appearance of desktop. And then today I came across new Intel NVME SSD 760p. which 256gb version only cost $100 on newegg, i.e. only $15 more than 850 EVO 250gb. So I wonder if my boot time will improve if I upgrade my boot drive from the EVO to the nvme. Thanks guys.

PS: I'm using ryzen 5 1600, asrock ab350m-hdv, 16gb 2666mhz. If I decide to purchase the Intel 760p, then the EVO will be used to store my games. Currently my games are being store by HGST Deskstar NAS 4TB.

It's faster therefore better boot times can be expected. I don't know about that one but my Samsung 960 Evo is of same speed but shaved only a second or two over ordinary SATA SSD, otherwise can't see much improvement in normal use. I also had similar difference in prices and took this Samsung instead but I had another reason, all my SATA ports were already in use. Those 6GB more also makes for even smaller difference in price. At least 5 of those 15 bucks.
