The best gaming SSDs will be cheaper than ever on Cyber Monday

A good SSD will give you more space for games and at the same time speed up game loading. This is a win-win. If you're looking for the best SSD (open in new tab) for Cyber Monday (open in new tab), here's a 25% bargain on what we think is the best PCIe 4.0 gaming SSD: the 1TB WD Black SN850X for $99 at Newegg (open in new tab) at Newegg is not only a steal, it's the lowest price we've seen for this SSD.

As an added bonus, this SSD runs cooler than the original SN850, so no heatsinks are needed. And oddly enough, the $35 savings makes the new SN850X cheaper than the old SSD at this point. Strange, but cool. Great opportunity to get the best SSD for gaming (opens in new tab).

If you're still using HDDs, it's really time to upgrade; SSDs are genuinely a huge improvement over the old rotary hard drives we've used for so long, and you'll instantly notice improved loading times when you boot up your games. You will also notice the difference in speed when transferring files between drives. If you've already upgraded to an SSD, then, saka saka, it's never a bad idea to add more storage to your PC.

My PC currently has three SSDs, each 1TB in size. This means that I no longer have to uninstall games or delete video capture files as often as before. I really appreciate having this much capacity and access speed, and while TB capacity seems rather extravagant, given the size of modern games (I won't name names), large terabyte chunks fill up quickly.
