Pretty much. You can put almost everything on the HDD, including games. You just put the main programs you use on the SSD, as well as the game's shortcuts.

SSD type things:

1. Image editors
2. 7Zip, CCleaner, Antivirus
3. Things like VLC Media Player or similar.
4. Monitoring software


I'm not up on how the game thing works, but most folks seem to only put the very smallest part of the game on the SSD, the rest goes on the HDD.
Maybe someone familiar with the games thing, can explain it better.


In short, the only things you want on the SSD are things that can take advantage of the SSD's speed.

yeah im upgrading, i thought there would be a difference.


Not really, this is almost as much of a side-grade as that guy who went from an i7-4790k to a ryzen for gaming.

well it just seems a little foolish that it should only be the shortcut that would be needed to be on the ssd?

But okay thanks anyways! i much appriciate your answer!

Well there has to be some kind of add to the performance? - Ive benchmarked all of it and the cpu is increased by 20%, ram 8% and GPU also 8%.
