This pc is planning to play 1080p 60fps ultra on almost if not all modern games, but I feel as if 250gb ssd won't be enough.

I'm new to pc building btw

Please offer links to the part you find on partpicker! Thank you guys for your help so much!!!

You could add a 1/2 tb drive as well to your build so you can install the OS and some games on the SSD whilst you offload anything else to the HDD.

Note I haven't built this PC and I need it kept around $850 as said above. Should I totally just swap out the 250gb ssd for the 500gb hdd? Thanks

You can still add a 1/2 tb HDD later on.

Windows plus your usual installs (Adobe Acrobat, Open Office, seven zip, VLC, Daemon Tools, etc...) will run you about 50GB or maybe more. That leaves you about 50GB left on a 128GB drive. From my experience it's realistic to give 25GB per game install so that leaves room for 2 games. Your left with little room on the drive meaning zero room on your desktop which is were I like to download everything and work with temporary pics/vids before archiving them elsewhere.

A 256GB drive gives you the extra 128GB free so figure out if that's enough. 1 extra game installed leaves 100GB for some music and movies. I find 256GB adequate for my needs providing you have a second drive for archiving all your movies, music, pics... I'd add a 1TB + on top of a 256GB for archiving.

If you're the type who likes 6+ games installed simultaneously and plays them all, then definitely a 512GB SSD.
