Samsung 950 Pro 512GB or the Samsung EVO 1TB?

[IAEInferno]

Hello, I'm planning on building a new PC since my current one is already 3 years old and it has problems maintaining 50-60 fps at lower settings on some highly demanding graphical games that require a lot more power and right now i want to know what would be a better choice in terms of gaming between the Samsung 950 512 GB versus the Samsung 850 EVO 1tb since they are priced very close.

A traditional hard drive would be sufficient for games, as SSDs are generally shown to not really provide a significant enough benefit for gaming, short of improved load times.

 

And considering your use case doesn't exactly require a device with a read speed of in excess of two gigabytes per second, the 850 EVO 1TB will be more than enough.

Thank you Sir!

Do you do video editing as your job or something like that?

If not, get the larger 850 evo, because the 950 pro will be a waste of money for 0 performance increase.

More space is very beneficial if you want to have lots of games.
