There's always a delay with Samsung to catch up to the lower prices of other ssds

I have the 2TB SN850x as well. Perhaps Gen 5 computers will show a real difference, but until then, they just all seem to run together if you know what I mean.
I havent added the 990 pro because it doesnt add enough speed, it would just add more heat.
I run all 2tb - 980 pros and 970 evo plus as cache drives in my server. I can tell you the 980's are in fact that much faster.
My gaming pc boots off the hynix p41 and extra drives are 980 pro's.

BTW - The 990 is Gen 4, not 5. No one has a gen 5 SSDs on the market, especially samsung, who built the 990 to match up to the SN850x, et. al., and possibly to improve the controller. The real shocker about the 990 was that it too was Gen 4 when they had the 980 already. People didn't get it, but the 990 is just an improved 980 if you will...

Why would the price on aging technology go up? Unless you think there's going to be another chip shortage? Lol
