Is the Crucial T700 worth it over a Gen4 SSD?

For large file transfers, game installs and AI or video work, yes: it is roughly twice as fast as Gen4 drives. For everyday browsing and office use you will barely notice the difference, so a cheaper Gen4 drive makes more sense.

Will the T700 hit its rated speed in my PC?

Only with a Gen5-capable CPU and motherboard, such as recent Intel or AMD platforms with a Gen5 M.2 slot. In a Gen4 slot it runs at Gen4 speeds.

Does the heatsink fit a PS5?

Yes. The M.2 2280 length and the attached heatsink fit the PS5 expansion slot, though you should confirm clearance in your console's bay.

It can reach high temperatures under sustained writes, and the heatsink helps but needs airflow. In a case with weak airflow it may throttle during long transfers.

The SSD with its heatsink pre-installed. No mounting screw is guaranteed, so check your motherboard's M.2 hardware.
