    FYI, I have a 980 pro 2tb in my new build. It's great but it runs really hot. It would sit idle in the 50's and even basic stuff was putting into the 70's and low 80's Celsius. I use it for my main OS drive (I know, overkill). Anyways, the motherboard included 'heat sink' bar built into it wasn't helping. Removed that and added my own heat sink kit.
    Used this, looks great and lowered the temps. It never goes above 45 even under prolonged cpu benchmarking.

    I replaced the thermal pads with thermal grizzly minus 8. I used a 1mm and .5mm half and half sized on the 980. This is because of you look at the ssd from an angle, the controller and other modules on it are actually not all at the same height, meaning using just one sized pad for the whole thing won't make good contact and compression.
    Great video on this issue and how to address it, should you feel so inclined.

    Obviously this is all a bit overkill, but I enjoy this kind of tinkering and it was a lot of fun to see the temps improve so much. Enjoy!

    I have the 980 Pro 500 GB. If I knew then what I know now, I would have gotten something cheaper. Right now, Newegg and B&H have the Intel 670p 2TB for $80. If your most stressful storage application is PC gaming, you don't need to shell out for a top-of-the-line PCIe Gen4 drive. Just look at real world benchmarks, instead of synthetic tests, the performance difference between the 980 Pro and most other drives is pretty small.

    Ty for the quick reply. I will check rw benches. I do a little bit of gaming, media editing and db migration.

    Although I could argue that if you are the type to build a screaming fast PC and keep it for a decade or more, the super reliability of the 980 pro becomes more attractive.

    Will look into it, thanks. Hopefully my corsair water block will fit, it was only a few bucks more when I got it. If you like tinkering, might wanna take a look at custom water cooling, if you haven't.

    $143.99 on Samsung.com when using employer discount. Also 10% CB at a popular site. Making it about $130.

    Education offer the same pricing as the employer discount.

    Now this has me questioning if i should return the Crucial P5 Plus, but sounds like the consensus for gaming/maybe twitch streaming doesn't warrant the change?

    Definitely looked into custom water cooling Smilie My 13700k was easily hitting 100c in benchmarking, and that is with a thermalright frame, NT-H2, and arctic liquid freezer 2 360 Aio. I might do a custom loop, when I eventually change out my 3080ti for a 4090 or maybe a 5000 series by then lol. For now a voltage offset of -0.1 and custom fan curves, have finally tamed it. Won't go above 90c now under 100% load and raised my cinebench score from 28500's to 29500ish.
    Fair warning on the arctic cooler… it's a thick chunky boy and I couldn't fit it in my corsair 5000x running on the top, without some minor modifications.
