We aren't talking about someone buying a SATA SSD vs a NVMe. If someone is building a new computer then sure, grab a NVMe unless you are talking about large storage in which case SATA is probably still the route to go. We are talking about someone who I assume is a gamer given that he mentioned he has a 3070 Ti and was asking about NVMe drives compared to his SATA SSD, in which case save the money and keep the SATA. Get a NVMe when you are building a whole new computer.

But what do I and Linus know.
I'm not sure why you're arguing this. Faster data transfers benefit everything a PC does, including gaming. And a data transfer 25 times faster is absolutely noticeable.

Again, there is no money to save. NVME drives are the same price as their much slower SSD counterparts. In many cases, they're cheaper.
