So I built my current PC a year ago and decided to use a Samsung 860 EVO 1TB as the boot drive for it.
The motherboard in this PC is a "ASUS Tuf Gaming X570" which I believe has a slot that allows me to install an NVMe drive. I've heard that these kinds of drives are the fastest drives you can get.
But I'm wondering outside of dragging big files(tens of GBs) from one folder to another will I genuinely see that much of a performance boost if I decided to change my boot drive from normal SSD to NVMe? I remember watching a Linus Tech Tips video from months ago and they blind-tested an NVMe drive vs a normal SSD and they didn't find a significant difference between the two.
Can someone who knows about these things give me their opinion on the matter and whether I should even bother to upgrade my current boot drive?
My specs are as follows:
Ryzen 3700x
ASUS X570 Tuf Gaming
16GB Ram
RTX 2070 Super
Thanks!
