Hold all your NVMe SSD buying. Both Micron and AData have announced new lines of drives. Making a recent series of sales none too surprising. Price should come down further if people aren't rushing in to buy. We need a supply glut for the manufacturers to be more aggressive on the pricing.

FYI.

Available at Amazon for $184.99 with coupon. No $10 gift card but could be cheaper for those who have a 5% Prime reward credit card.

I have the xpg s11 pro and honestly for real world use only daily task and gaming, it wasn't much of a difference to the older 2.5ssd I have. This being even better than my s11 pro, I'm not sure There would be any different except for benchmark numbers

This is only one of a few pci 4 SSDs available. Newer faster ones with different controller should come by the end of the year. I did buy one of these six months ago because they were $130 back then, sad that flash memory went up in price.

AMD has been killing it at their pricing. Their chips cut around some corners but so does the cost of it. Intel chips thus have diminishing returns compared to AMD.

CPUs are good, but yet to prove they can put the gpu driver and performance issues to bed.
