About RPM speed in hardrives

[hushinimi]

Can A hard drive with higher RPM gain boost or better performance on gaming? Im a bit Curious about it i think it's a yes, if it does, what kind of performance? better rendering at 3d objects or something? simply, what does a higher RPM hard drive do?

thank you in advance!!!

It has higher read write speeds which basically means faster transfer rates.

If you're planning on spending over $100, better look into an SSD.
That's where the speed is at!

NO it means the potential for faster DATA transfer rates. and you should be looking at read/write rates for that not RPM. it will affect load times and that's it. NOT graphics.

As the guys are trying to tell you, a new (faster) HDD will not improve your graphics in any way! Your games may load faster but that has nothing to do with graphics quality.
By the sound of it you should probably be looking for a better GPU than you already have not a hard drive if this upgrade is targeting better gameplay.
On the other hand, if you want to speed up your pc for general use an ssd is the ticket! Any brand that suits you budget will do, just read up before you buy!
