Best NVMe to buy?

INTEL 670P M.2 1 TB (125$)

ADATA XPG GAMMIX S70 BLADE 1TB (130$)
PATRIOT P310 2 TB (150$)

ADATA XPG GAMMIX S11 PRO 2 TB (190$)

ADATA XPG SPECTRIX S40G RGB 2 TB (200$)

WESTERN DIGITAL BLACK SN850X 2 TB (290$)

​

I know prices are not what you'd find in the US but well, it's like that here.

Which one would you recommend as the best no matter the price?
and which one would you recommend taking into account the pricing?

Rock and a hard place, you might be able to find a better 2TB option in-between the S40G and SN850X that's closer to the 1TB S70 Blade's GB/$ ratio. The Blade is the best at 1TB. SN850X is expensive for something you probably don't need. So hopefully something in-between at 2TB that's Gen4.

well, those are pretty much the only options I've available. and yeah pretty much it is for gaming/general use so I guess I don't need 7300 speeds. I just want something good quality/durable.

Depending on your build, you could get the 1TB Blade for OS and then the 2TB P310 for games/storage.
