You’re going to need an SSD in order to play Final Fantasy 16 on PC (www.techradar.com)

Playing modern games as soon as they come out is privileged too.

SSD's have massively decreased in price over the last couple of years. I'm confused by your comment?

A basic GPU will cost you $150-$250 dollars. A 1tb SSD will cost you $50, or the same price for a half terabyte nvme.

You can't even realistically get a proper HDD below $40, they just don't sell. You'd be best served at the $80 price point, getting either

1tb nvme
2tb SSD
4tb HDD

I'd suggest the nvme in this situation.

A cheap SSD is less money than a cheap HDD at this point.
