If you purchase this ssd you should update the firmware as it comes with 002c and 003c was released in May.

The windows tool to do firmware updates is at https://www.solidigm.co
Under linux there is a command line tool called "sst" which can be used to update the firmware. It's available in the AUR for Archlinux and Manjaro users. Not sure if it's available in Debian/Ubuntu based or RPM based distro's.

None of that matters too much because gaming really isn't heavily dependent on storage throughput. You'll see reviews that use synthetic benchmarks show big differences between drives, but when there's a real-world game load time benchmark, it usually shows tiny differences between drives and differences that aren't always consistent with overall throughput. For example, the 670p loads some games faster than some Gen4 drives, which supposedly have much higher throughput.
