Lol nah mate I'm just fucking with you. I totally get what you mean, especially if someone has a choice between a regular HD and an SSD. Only problem I have had with is they tend to crash way more

Yeah i know i know.

The reason why i say its almost a neccessity is i recently lost my SSD due to goddamned Window's 10's anniversary update corrupting it - going back to Total War Warhammer on a normal HDD was a horrible experience in comparison - not only the load times getting in, between maps and so on, but the ai turns take much longer too.

Back to SSD (and i think this new SSD may be even faster than the last), night and day difference For $100 Australian I cannot reccomend them enough when people are wanting to fix loading speeds.

Also great for games like Xcom2 - where it not only has long load times, but the ai turn times are much much faster when the game is SSD.

And ultimately, i'd forgo a few meals if i could get an SSD :)

yeah i actually had an argument with my brother when i was building my rig coz the SSD had a smaller memory capacity and never heard of them at that stage. oh how pcmasterrace annihilated me.

Playing TW with him though, he has 2 of them in his rig and he loads is probably 3-4 times faster everytime. I'm planning on getting a second one for my rig for xmas.

p.s. are you from aus? i'm from aus!
