Hey Guys,
So currently I am looking into building my first gaming PC(the current one I own is a 4 year old pre-built Desktop, and all it has on it is a regular HDD). I really don't want a SSD/HDD combo for 2 reasons:
a) The price
b) I don't want to worry about what to install/not install on each respective drive
So I am currently in between two products for my upcoming endeavor, either a WD Black 2TB Performance Desktop Hard Disk Drive:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FJRS628/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I2ALF7DBR6ZL57&colid=3H9UNK11G1IAA
Or a Seagate 2TB FireCuda Gaming SSHD (Solid State Hybrid Drive):
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IEKG2HM/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I2R928U8R02FU1&colid=3H9UNK11G1IAA
On my current computer I game pretty heavily, use programs such as Fraps(video recording), Sony Vegas Pro 14(video editing), and Photoshop. And I browse the internet and download stuff quite frequently aswell.
My current HDD(I've been using for 4 years) is just a run-of-the-mill regular hard drive, and to my knowledge it runs pretty slow(I've never actually witnessed a SSD in action/so I don't know what "fast" is) so speeds for game loading aren't super important to me, however, after reading about SSHDs I think it would be nice to have improved OS speeds.
The computer(Desktop) I am hoping to build will be able to run games with great FPS at max to near max settings.
So I have two questions:
Although I don't think it would, will my choice effect the performance of gameplay?
In your guys' opinions, which would be the best product for me to purchase? Thanks!
(And if you need clarification on anything let me know)
