1.3K

I noticed last night my ram had defaulted back to 1333mhz and a 15 latency. I set them back to 1600mhz and a 9 latency and saw an immediate improvement.

I’m running a 2TB 7200rpm hard drive and want to upgrade to an ssd I’m currently getting 96 read and write is 83.

The ssd I’m looking at is:

The 860 EVO performs at sequential read speeds up to 550 MB/s* with Intelligent TurboWrite technology, and sequential write speeds up to 520 MB/s. The TurboWrite buffer size* is upgraded from 12 GB to 78 GB.

Would this make a difference in game play?

No, not really.. an SSD will help significantly reduce load times but generally not increase in game performance, I've seen some speculation that SSD would increase performance of some open world games that contain no loading screens, but nothing definitive.

Regardless of all that however, an SSD is worth the money (more so if you can get a good deal) reducing immersion breaking loading times is worth it for any gamer.

Yeah load times take awhile and then joking a server. This should definitely help with that.

I play one of those so it may help in that game.
