Hi! So, I play DCS, and for those of you who know how big that game is, where a single map can use up to 150gb of storage, two 512gb drives are not gonna cut it. I already have an DRAM-less SSD and i use it as a boot drive, it honestly is pretty fast and I haven't had any problem with it, now, I need a 1tb drive and I found a Kingston Nv3 and a Nv2 Snv2s, as far as my knowledge goes, they're both DRAM-less, but is this gonna affect performance in any impactful way? (One of them is like 3.5/3.0gb write/read and the other is like 6.0/4.0gb write/read).

Other than playing videogames and editing some content, I don't do anything else. I just game and store.. stuff, just like anyone else, but I read some topics about this kind of SSD and I'm really on the fence, because right now I can only afford a DRAM-less SSD.

My PC specs:

be quiet! 750w PSU
ASUS B650M-A Wifi II
AMD Ryzen 5 7600x
NVidia 3060ti
Corsair 2x16gb 5200MT/s
480gb kingston SATA SSD
512gb kingston NvMe m.2 SSD

Thank you all in advance!

full system specs helps doesnt matter how fast the drive is if the components cant keep it fed.

No. it will not affect overall performance of whole system just because it's DRAMless.
