So I'm performing my first build and this dilemma has come up. I've read some people say that SSD doesn't make that much of a difference to the regular user and that it doesn't make up for the price difference just yet. Therefore, which setup is better:
- 1TB SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 7200RPM Hard Drive + 120 GB Samsung EVO SSD = $130
- 2TB Seagate Hybrid Gen3 SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 5400RPM SSHD = $96
- 4TB (4TBx1) SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 64MB 5900RPM HDD = $146
- 250 GB Samsung EVO SSD = $109
- 1TB 10,000RPM SATA-III 6.0Gb/s 64MB = $240
- 500 GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD = $192
Let's call the rest of the build: i7 4790k, gtx 960, asus z97, 8gb dd3. So most of my budget would already be on these things and cooler, psu, display etc; which means that getting the 500 gb ssd for example would probably mean downgrading elsewhere. What do you guys recommend?
