These are US prices.  See if you can do better.  COMFORTABLE 4k Gaming, anything under 60fps in AAA titles on med doesn't count.

Programs still take multitudes longer to load. As do games.

Never again will I allow spinning storage in one of my PCs

Extreme overclocking and also you never specified what comfortable fps is. I used to play at 10fps and I was comfortable with it.

There is no world where 10fps can be called "comfortable".  The commonly accepted "minimum" frame-rate to be considered playable is 30fps.  Frankly, I wouldn't personally play anything less than 60fps in single player and 120fps in multi-player.  10fps is like playing a flip-book or watching stop-motion.

I have a 2TB external drive. Soon to be swapped out for 2 4TB drives. But nothing in the PC, it'll always be attached storage.
