Patriot Viper VP4300

Among the 2.5-inch SSDs, the Samsung 870 QVO took first place with very high speed and very good programme acceleration. This also applies to the first-placed PCIe 3.0 SSD: The SK Hynix Gold P31 not only took the test victory, but also the price-performance victory. The Samsung 990 Pro did the same with the PCIe 4.0 SSDs: It also achieved the test and price-performance victory here...

The differences in the synthetic measurements are large, but they blur in the practical benchmarks. A fast and expensive SSD is only worthwhile if you also use it, for a simple office PC a cheap SSD with PCIe 3.0 is sufficient. However, if you only look at the performance and only consider the SSDs from this test, you can hardly get past the Acer Predator; the Adata Legend 840 and the HP FX900 follow...

The Patriot Viper VP4300 is very fast, versatile, bundled with two different heat sinks and is therefore unreservedly recommended by us.
