It's incredible how much the prices have fallen and that's how it should be. Sure, I bought the 960 close to launch but still the difference is staggering.

The 960 Evo still chugs along albeit it's a new one because a few months after I bought it, I had to RMA it. I guess that's what happens when you are an early adopter. I lost a few hours of work when the original 960 Evo decided to stop working but it also taught me to be more paranoia with backups.

My only gripe with the NVME screws is that they are board provided, and thus, if you lose it, it is a sad day, they are not standard, and I've got one board that doesn't match up with anything.

Not only that, even though NVME is pretty standard these days, it's a crapshoot whether or not the mobo you buy will even come with the standoff/screws. One of the biggest rollout fails in modern tech history.
