Yep, I think I'm having one of those old guy "hey you kids get off my lawn moments" but I just don't like this direction.Those heatsinks omg

Yea I saw those twin heat sinks and said . Out loud. "That is stupid"
As in stupid bad.
So, so, true. Man, the things I'm already blocking out of my head. I'd already forgotten about those. the DUO right? Yep, it's Gen4 for me, for a while to come.At least they didn't have a pair of Teamgroup's 120mm SSD AIOs hooked up?
Lets not forget you're probably exceeding the consumer cache in the drive with a 4 gig test block. Most I know of cap out at 1 gig some 2 gig.CORSAIR MP600 PRO NH | 8TB | PCIe Gen 4 x4* | TLC

*It's tested in a X299 Gen 3.0 system, so sequential is bottlenecked due to that.
Wow.It helps if you switch CrystalDiskmark to do NVME speed testing... sadly I don't have my 980's results done correctly.

Just looking at the pure NVME testing it's clear that the drive has more bandwidth than even a single thread can saturate. I'm tempted to try a test with random 4k Q64T32 just to see if it's even MORE insane.Wow.
I never noticed there was a separate mode for NVMe either.
I'm going to have to check that out.
The high queue depth RND4K (Q32T16) read numbers for this drive are beastly, but the low queue depth RND4k Q1T1 appear somewhat stagnant. They have been at 85MB/s or thereabouts for 2-3 generations now.
It has long been my theory that the RND4K Q1T1 are what make the Optane Drives so amazing, as they have them and no other drives do, and they tend to perform in a class of their own when it comes to responsiveness, but I have never tested anything with this kind of massive higher queue depth random numbers, so I am really curious how they compare.

Test done.... not worth it.
Well when I did the test with 32 threads and a queue depth of 64 I was pretty much using 80-90% of a 9950x3d.yeah, the RND4k Q1T1 tests are usually very limited by CPU core speed. Stick an Optane in an older system, and it can't really take advantage of it. Even in my Threadripper 3960x, I can't fully take advantage of all of the performance of the Optane DC p5800x in 4kRND Q1T1.
