Is dvd read speed 16x fast enough for viewing movies on my pc?

Hello,

I do not want any skips or time delays while watching DVDs on my desktop after I build it.

16x is more than enough my laptop reads at 8x and never misses a beat

1x is what a set-top home DVD player is, so no, you shouldn't have any problem.

16x speed is for burning DVDs.

When playing back a movie, the DVD drive reads the DVD movie at 1x speed.
