[SOLVED] NVME vs SATA SSD

[karol__]

Hello,

Sorry if this has been already asked 1000 times.

I have a SATA MX500 SSD. In multiple games I can see that there are quite a lot of textures popping. I saw in the news recently that the new PS5 SSD is going to reduce pop ins.

So I have been wondering, is upgrading my MX500 to 970 evo plus a worthy upgrade and would it somehow reduce textures popping?

I have RTX 2080 (with plans to upgrade soon) + 8086k.

Most likely these pop one are not caused by an SSD.

The mx500 is very fast and honestly I don't think nvme will change anything

Any idea what might have caused those pop ins? Most recently I had them in GTA V, Horizon zero dawn and Remnant. I usually play on high - ultra settings. My build: RTX 2080, 8086K at 4.8 Ghz, Z370 ASRock Taichi mobo, GSKILL 16 GB 3000 Mhz RAM, Corsair RM750 PSU and Crucial MX500 Sata SSD.
