Believe this is the lowest price point ever for local stock.

Per my post #4, Courts online is offering same promo, combined with code GSSCO, become $412.72

Samsung 980 Pro is PCIe 4.0, just launched at a much cheaper price point (1TB USD$209 at Amazon), but uses TLC with pseudo-SLC caching.

Please consult reviews before hooting.

P.S. I hooted 1 unit myself

This is a solid drive in my opinion with no need for fancy SLC cache. Been using the 512GB version for some time now. However given the onslaught of PCI-E 4.0 drives, I doubt it will be that attractive for most people even at the lower 469 bucks.

I just gave $56.28 away for nothing.

The cheapest 2TB PCI-E 3.0 NVME SSD I got was around 315 SGD. So I feel while the performance is very good, it may not be worth the steep premium.

Yeah, I agree. I am getting it to function as the primary OS drive, although it is overkill.
It's replacing the 850 Pro SATA 256GB salvaged from my old rig. I sat out of buying a new M.2 PCIe SSD for my new rig last year due to ridiculous local pricing for high-end SSDs at the time.
More gutted that i didn't get it cheaper from Courts
Any secondary SSDs I get in the future will be TLC.

If you have already gotten it, just use it. Forget about checking up for better prices. It will do you no good.
