Concerning a gaming system, is it better to get a Samsung 850 Evo 1TB SSD to house Windows, drivers and games (Steam/Origin) or just get a 960 Evo NVMe 1TB and slap everything on it. I know it doesn't give me an edge in FPS or MMORPGs. I was also thinking an 512GB 960 Evo and putting Windows and drivers on it while a 850 Evo houses all my games. I was looking it up on Amazon and it seems less expensive to get 1 HDD than 2. Over $500 for NVMe and a SSD or 1TB NVMe for $479. If I get a Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, that's $340.
One thing concerns me, the NVMe sits near/under the video card. I plan to get a Asus ROG 1080ti OC Edition. Part of me wants to get 2 to SLI it. I plan to make this system my gaming system for years and years.
* I have the ASrock x370 Tachi paired with a x1800 (got it for $349 and the MB I got for $169)*
* I do play Battlegrounds, Planet Coaster, No Man's Sky, Civilization 6 to name some games I play*
