Just found out that there is a 800GB model of this SSD. Has anyone got their hands on one yet? I would like to see some real world test results between each model. Is 1200GB model really worth it, or should I go for 400GB / 800GB if the capacity meets my needs?

Intel 750 performance (400GB vs 800GB vs 1200GB)?

I have quite a bit of extensive experience with the 400GB and the 1.2TB drives. The 800 is spec'd to have slower random and sequential performance than the 400 and 1.2TB but in real world usage it would be difficult to tell unless your usage model is very specific on needing _____ amount of MB/s reads or writes.
For reference one of the testing models that responds favorably to NVMe specifically is using adobe speedgrade where you can actually load up the full 2.2GB/s read on playing back multiple 4K videos at once to test for color spectrum matching.
I personally run the 400GB as my bootdrive in my x99 setup and have a 1.2TB in another machine. I got both of these before the 800GB was announced though so I can't say whether I would have bought the 800GB over the 400 or 1.2TB for my usages.
Tweaktown kind of "exposed" a possible weakness on the 750series for the 1.2TB vs the 400GB in that it may take longer for the 1.2TB to recover to a steady state performance after a full LBA span thrashing, but realistically how are you going to actually do a full LBA span write and then mixed write in real world usage...answer...you aren't.

Thanks for the answers. I'll need the drive to saturate 10Gbps link so I can move stuff between my server and desktop fast.

According this, 400GB seems to perform better than 1,2TB, at least in some tests. I'll wait for more tests on 800GB and decide then.
