For what it's worth I bought this same drive last year for ~$165 and that was an excellent price at the time. Prices have dropped been dropping for solid state drives for a while and may continue to drop.
Gen 3 vs Gen 4 doesn't really matter much for an OS drive. Random read/write benchmarks (with QD 4 or less) would be more telling of performance versus the sequential speeds.

Now if you're someone who will be copying over large files on a regular basis (such as for video editing), that's where the Gen 4 speeds will be most beneficial.

same goes for ddr4 and 5
Transfers speeds make no real-world difference between the gens, but random speeds tend to be faster on the gen 4s aren't they? Random speeds are what someone might actually notice in real life use when it comes to system responsiveness.

I think the prices are fairly stable now. That doesn't mean we won't see things a little lower. It's very difficult to buy at the absoute bottom whether we're talking stocks or computer hardware.

You're mostly right. For the vast majority of users, there will be no noticeable difference between even a SATA SSD and the fastest Gen 5 NVME drive for regular use or gaming. For professional work (video editing, rendering, or loading massive spreadsheets) there will be a pretty substantial difference. Also, there's currently not much of a difference between DDR5 and the fastest DDR4 in things like gaming, that's because DDR5 is in it's infancy. Once the generation matures, much faster RAM will be developed. It's been like that for every previous generation. It's part of the early adopter tax.
Edit: I forgot to mention that once more games implement Direct Storage, there WILL be a noticeable difference between slower SSD's and faster ones. So far, only one game has full Direct Storage support (Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart), but most new games will support it pretty soon.

I ordered this last night from Amazon, I got it today but they sent me the 2.5" form factor, not the M.2, retuning it to Amazon.

It's $72 directly from Samsung on Employee discount and $65 from Microcenter in store with their $15 off coupon.

Calling Amazon, a prolific retailer of counterfeit goods and used items sold as new no risk is a very interesting theory.

Isn't the P31 considered superior to this drive for PCIe 3.0? Basically the same performance, but runs much cooler.
