Acer Predator GM7000 vs ADATA Falcon: Comparison

What is the difference between Acer Predator GM7000 and ADATA Falcon?

Sequential write is where these two genuinely part company, Acer Predator GM7000 6700 MB/s against ADATA Falcon 1500 MB/s, a 78% lead for Acer Predator GM7000. Measured rather than claimed: in Speed Score the Acer Predator GM7000 returns 8.4 against 6.1, a 27% lead. Acer Predator GM7000 also leads on sequential read, 7400 MB/s on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus 3100 MB/s on the ADATA Falcon. Endurance tbw runs the same way, 1300 TB on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus 1480 TB on the ADATA Falcon, another win for ADATA Falcon. Bus interface is not the same on both, PCIe 4.0 x4 on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus PCIe 3.0 x4, M.2 2280 on the ADATA Falcon. They differ on dram cache too, DRAM on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus DRAM-less on the ADATA Falcon. Controller is not the same on both, IG5236 on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus RTS5762DL on the ADATA Falcon. Nand vendor is not the same on both, Micron on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus Micron 96-layer TLC on the ADATA Falcon.

Who each one is for

Take the Acer Predator GM7000 for gaming PCs and laptops with a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot wanting 2000 GB of fast storage. It also earns its place with buyers who want a DRAM cache and a 1300 TBW endurance rating. It is the wrong buy for systems limited to PCIe 3.0, where the drive cannot reach its 7400 MB/s read speed.

What Acer Predator GM7000 and ADATA Falcon have in common

Where they agree, they agree completely, capacity, nand type, form factor, drive type and warranty included, so the decision does not turn on any of those.
