Thoughts on new PC build (ZEN 3)

[AnyOldName3]

I'm unconvinced SSDs will be a hard requirement for next-gen console games for a few years yet. People tend to like being able to play a game and then play a different game without two hours of installation time in between, but the launch models of the new consoles have pretty meagre capacities, so would only fit at best a single game of the scope the announcement speeches described. In a few years, the refreshes will definitely come with bigger capacities and you'll get replacement SSDs for the launch models (and maybe even the odd game that comes preinstalled onto an SSD like in the cartridge era), but the first couple of waves of games won't be able to rely on that. The only way I see them doing so is if they push a misinformation campaign eye-can-only-see-24-FPS style where they somehow convince people waiting to install games is a good thing.
