    PCSPECIALIST, PCSPECIALIST How to get the best out of my new graphics card

    This is very similar to the rig I was proposing, so it's a relief to know I'm in good company. I'd be interested in people's thoughts about swapping out the HDD and SSD for a single, 1TB Samsung 980 pro. I play a lot of turn-based games and I'm sick of watching that damn bar slowly fill up...
