Will there be a significant increase in system speed when moving from a 500 MB/s SSD to a 1500 MB/s read speed?

I want to switch from an old Sata 3 SSD that gives out 450 MB / s reads at the limit, to a PCI Express 3.0 SSD in which the read speed is 3 or 4 times higher, as is the price. At work, my computer is loaded with a browser in 10-30 tabs, in which a heavy devtool is opened that sometimes consumes 2GB+ of RAM, two Webstom IDEs, an ios simulator (sometimes android), skype, slack, a running local server, in general, the PC loads well. The question is, is it worth it to spend money on a new expensive SSD that is 4 times faster, how good will this affect the speed of work?

CPU core i5, 15th year

not worth it: there will be no significant increase.
I speak as the owner of several pci-ssds (both in stripe and without) on my working machine.
those discs are a good thing.
but they give profit only on certain tasks and in normal work they are a waste of money.

It's better to take a normal i7: one of the top ones, the most supported by your motherboard.

No. We are already fighting here not for speed, but for the number of iops per recording. It doesn't matter to you at all.
It makes much more sense to buy i7 for your platform, to finish off the memory - the effect will be greater.
You can use caching in memory, through primocache. Take her for example 4Gb, this is quite within the aisles of medium files. They will be cached in memory and from there to the SSD.
