[US-MI] [WTB] intel p5800x 400gb

[GPvLab]

Ive been wanting one for a PC build for 3 years now, and id really like to get my hands on one to get that much more out of windows and gta load times.

If anyone would sell me one at a slightly lower than market rate, I would be ever grateful.

i have two of the 900 and 905 480gb versions. why the p5800x specifically? all optanes ate wicked fast. just curious!

You know what, maybe youre right. maybe one day ill afford the 1.6 or 3.2 p5800x or whatever the best one is in the future, for now though the 905p looks like a solid upgrade based on your recommendation. Im coming from a samsung m.2 980 pro

I have a 900gb 905p in my main desktop, and keep telling myself that I don't actually need a p5800x. So far I've been convincing, but it's a close thing.

The big difference is the read/write speeds, but if I get two 905p's and put them in a sonnet fusion 2x u.2 pcie card, then i can run them in raid 0 and pretend I have a 1tb p5800x, for the price of.... a 400gb p5800x, or for about $400 more, a 800gb p5800x

ive used an optane in my desktop for years. greatest benefit is practically zero performance loss when it gets full
