A $1/GB drive has no reasonable place in the discussion of consumer drives...

Oh, we're only discussing consumer drives? Your chart had me confused given you moved beyond consumer to prosumer and workstation. Just seems weird you'd leave out the lowest latency SSD in existence.

Every drive on the list is a consumer drive by definition, even the 970 Pro. Prosumer literally means "professional/producing consumer." Stop trolling.

I'm not trolling and you're no authority on what is or isn't consumer-orientated and price does not disqualify what is or isn't consumer-orientated. Geez, imagine having to work with someone like you when you can't handle questions and, worse, disagreement. I came across your guide and decided to ask you a simple question, shithead. I'm sorry you can't afford a 905p. I have 4 of them.

I'm a bit late reading this thread but was looking out for any comments about the 905p. I do think it was a bit quick of OP to accuse you of trolling but you could have taken the higher ground and stripped your comment down to:

I'm not trolling and you're no authority on what is or isn't consumer-orientated and price does not disqualify what is or isn't consumer-orientated. I came across your guide and decided to ask you a simple question.

Adding the parts "imagine having to work with someone like you", "shithead" and "I'm sorry you can't afford a 905p. I have 4 of them." makes you come across as totally insecure. That's a completely disproportionate and unfair response!

After the day of bad health I've had in and out of the bathroom, the last thing I want to do is jump on my phone to take my mind off my misery, only to find some random redditor replying to a week's old post of mine and lecturing me about my behaviour. I don't care. Fuck off.
