PCIe 3.0 SSD Prices

PCIe 3.0 NVMe drives read at around 3,500 MB/s — plenty for everyday computing and gaming, and the best value if your motherboard is Gen 3 or you simply don't need Gen 4/5 speeds. A Gen 4 drive also works in a Gen 3 slot, but only at Gen 3 rates, so a native Gen 3 drive is often the smarter buy.

This page tracks PCIe 3.0 SSD pricing over time and highlights the best value today. Every drive is ranked by price per gigabyte and scored against its own history, so a genuine deal stands out from a merely cheap one. RamList tracks prices daily across Amazon, Newegg, eBay, Walmart, and Best Buy, merges duplicate listings by model number, and refreshes throughout the day.
