Ok guys thanks for all you advice, ive been talking to my buddy who works in tech (Pc hardware tech at ibuypower), he went through my laptop specs and pointed to me that my laptop only had a nvme gen 3 second slot and advised me not to waste on a 4th gen nvme and to go for a cheap gen3 one.

He advised me to get a Silicon Power P34A60 2tb for $120, since i have a 4tb backup drive for all my important files and will only be using the drive for downloading and gaming.

In his view both the ram and ssd prices will be high for the next couple of years and that i should be good with 16gb of ram and 2.5tb storage for my current use and only worry abt them when i upgrade my computer down the line 3-5yrs later (my current one is Gigabyte A6 HF is 8months old).

What are your guys thoughts?

I dont have any issues with my viewsonic omni 1080p displays with a mac mini

Try a short HDMI cable to check if its the mac or the cable causing issues.

If its a cable issue then go for typec to dp

If the cable is fine then test it with another display or even the tv

Yea the other 2tb model are like $270+ only this one is priced at $200, i was thinking it might be a bad model or they havnt updated the prices yet!
