Eh... yes and no. Depends on what you value and what you may be doing. Unless you're just happy with running benchmarks, you're not going to see much of any noticeable difference between load times with Gen3 or Gen4... hell even SATA SSDs don't give you that much slower results, and they're like 10x slower than Gen4 NVMe drives, on paper.

If you're primarily playing games, maybe you get 1 second faster load times, maybe, ditto for booting into Windows. Now perhaps you do productivity work where you're loading 100 gigs of Adobe files or something, then sure you'll see a tad more improvement, but you won't see 2x the speed, that on paper, the 980pro has over the 970 evo plus unless you're doing benchmarking.

So ultimately if that's worth $20 to you, then great, but you could make a similar argument that the $70 Intel drive is a "better buy" at $25 less than this for similar reasons.
I paid $492.99 for this from B&H Photo in July of 2019 (I'm looking at the order confirmation email in disbelief even as I type this). It's still going strong and it was my boot drive until I replaced it with a 990 pro a few months ago.

980 pro for $20 more from Samsung seems like a better buy. Gen4, faster.

If you live in a "civilized" area (it's a joke, don't take it personally), and never picked up from Amazon lockers you can use the code 'pickup10off' to take $10 off the price if you can pick up from an Amazon locker location.
I think it's a 1 time only deal though, but I was able to knock it down to $85. Also it will work for other items via Amazon, but it needs to be sold by Amazon, i.e. the $70 2TB intel drive I think is sold by Microcenter, so no bueno

Oh, and obligatory sad story. Bought the 1TB version of this for $100 just under a year ago.

As is always the way on SD, I just bought one of these about three weeks ago for $115 🙄

With that said, I'm happy with it. I bought a USB enclosure and replaced a 250Gb SSD using the free Samsung Data Migration software to copy the entire old drive over to the new one in about 25 minutes with zero issues.
