Edit
Yes it is repped you Corey
This review is after the switch and it stays just above the WD Blue SN550 and trails in some of the tests, so any price premium over the WD Blue is no longer justified. This is the main conclusion from this review.

Here is a comparison from different reviews in one article
https://www.tomshardwar
but the test conditions may vary between the two.
However, the slower interface on the new controller seems to have the most impact on sequential reads and writes where it is slower around 20%.
So small reads and writes as in a boot/OS disk or small document or image files for productivity apps shouldn't see much of a difference in practice. But people who buy larger capacities may be doing game or media applications and there the sequential operation hit will likely be noticeable.
But it is the way they have handled the whole business hiding behind the Max Read and Write numbers claiming the performance numbers are the same which makes them an outlier dishonest group amongst other companies that have done component changes if not as eggregiously.
If the deal is better than WD Blue and comparables, buy it. No longer comparable in performance with Sk Hynix, Sabrent, Silicon Power, etc.

Today, it is a crap-shoot if you get the better one or not.
Bah, I'll just wait until BF. This was just a luxury, 2nd drive type of deal for me. Got a 970 Evo Plus for a similar price after cash back and discounts last year.
