*Edit: I can find no indication that the controller swap affects this 2TB model.
Note that Samsung potentially swapped the original controller (reported on 1TB model) but Amazon still lists the drive with original Phoenix controller. However the change is likely helpful for most users due to pairing with a larger SLC cache, only hurting performance on sustained writes beyond SLC cache size (115 GB on replacement 1TB model; ?? for 2TB). New controller may run hot also.

main slot- PCIE 4
2nd slot - PCIE 3
the stock SSD in the PCIE 4 is loaded with a pcie 3, slow.

Should I leave the stock SSD in 3, and just buy this PCIE 3 Samsung 970 evo plus and toss in the pcie 3 slot? should I leave the OS on the stock SSD and put steam etc on this one? or should I just buy a PCIE 4 Samsung 980 pro, put it in the 1st slot, and put the pcie 3 original ssd in pcie 3 2nd slot?
this is cheaper than the 980 pro
would I even notice a difference in any gaming going from

to 970 evo plus or 980 pro?

I think in seeing the same. Ultimately HDD prices shot up because of Chia currency but now the currency declined in the Market. A lot of HDD dumping.
Have you done a comparison to sk hynix p31 2tb version? Im curious on the performance.
