Question Help deciding between 4 Nvme

[jcchimaera]

Should i choose:

1. Lexar NM610 250GB
2. Colorful CN600 256GB
3. Team MP33 256GB
4. ADATA SX6000 Lite 256GB

All of them almost at the same price.

5. Something else.

The Lexar NM610 250GB seems to get the best read and writes out of the 4. Its probably best just to look around and see the reliability of all of these tho. Personally, id go with something from Samsung, Kingston or Crucial. I've never had a problem with any of these brands.

And what is your budget, where are you buying?
Why must it be an NVMe drive? What are you using this for?

I'd prefer a top quality SATA III SSD over a second or third rate NVMe.

If your budget is limited, then go for the SATA III SSD like the other guy mentioned. If your budget is that low, then you cant doing anything that important on it.

Around 43 usd, Indonesia, Because i want to reduce cable around my case, currently using WD Green 120gb.

And no Crucial or Kingston available here.

M.2 and cable reduction does not require "NVMe"

M.2 can be had in SATA or NVMe protocol. That is simply how it plugs in.

And he is looking to make a sale, and to push whatever second rate junk he has on the shelf.

I already made a lot of research too here and there, i know the risks and don't really mind that, because this is my play around budget pc with ryzen 2200g build.

Okay let's try disregarding all of that, which 256gb Nvme do you suggest? i will see if the price worth enough to buy here.

Of those 4? None.
If I had to choose (and I wouldn't) the ADATA

Other NVMe M.2?
Intel 660p
Samsung 970 EVO

SATA III M.2:
Samsung 860 EVO
Crucial MX500

They both around 86 usd here.

How about XPG SX8200 PRO? i know i know that's from ADATA too, but should be better based on many reviews.

Sure, go for it.
Still a second rate device, but your budget and choices seem to be limited.

Alright, maybe next month because the price a little bit higher.

…. okay... Lemme stop you right here.... DONT USE A 250GB SSD period END... At minimum 500gb... frankly for any gaming system cheap budget low end you'll want enough space for future programs and WINDOWS upgrades. not to mention its always recommended to leave extra space on your hd for it to use its software enabling speed up programs I've had nothing but fantastic results using and built several systems with the 500 and 1tb versons. Frankly don't short yourself on a budget restriction on your MAIN OS hard drive spend a little extra and get a name brand that has a decent software support program withit. and a decent size for just a might fair bit of future proofing. for 66 bucks on newegg
Crucial P1 500GB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD - CT500P1SSD8
amazon 60 on amazon
Kingston 500GB A2000 M.2 2280 Nvme Internal SSD PCIe Up to 2000MB/S with Full Security Suite SA2000M8/500G

Having built about 5 gaming systems over the past year alone i always cringe at bare minimum systems

Doesn't really matter, i have another pc for heavy gaming.

Mostly use this 2200g for browsing + torrent + watching movies or videos.

And maybe playing old games below 2010.
