Thanks,

Should I worry about a SSD?


Upgrading to SSD was the best part of my last PC build.. Revolutionary.

It will make the computer faster when it comes to opening files and programs, but it won't actually increase in game for or graphic quality. Worthwhile to spend an extra $50 and get a 500gb one, but I wouldn't sacrifice your current hardware for it.

hell yea u need a ssd, no question about it... u will hate those slow upstart, file transfer and load time, trust me... load times on games can be 10x longer with HDD

will you be overclocking? if not there really no reason to get k cpu and z mobo, save some money there and get urself a ssd

Why? It's easy to do and offers tons of free performance. If you're not gonna overclock, don't even bother going Intel. Save the money and buy a Ryzen since the main advantage of Intel is to be able to overclock it to 5GHZ.

i still think intel will give u better gaming performance tho, but ryzen might be better for streaming

Modern motherboards have built in overclock utilities. You can manually adjust clock speed, voltage, and with nicer boards, even more. They are pretty good at protecting against damaging the board or chip, it just a matter of finding where your chip is stable. There are lots of in depth guides online, and if you have questions, there's lots of people here that can help.
