Absolutely agree 100% After finally securing a graphics card I finished my 1st pc build last Tuesday and it included my 1st ssd a nvme m.2. Huge difference going from a 15in laptop with a slow ass hdd to a pc with 32in 4k monitor and nvme m.2. No more f-ing waiting 10 minutes after I turn on my laptop before I can use it. Now I press the power button and 10-15 seconds later sign into Windows 10 and I'm good to go.
In addition to ssd make sure to get enough memory. Solid memory can be had at good prices so don't skimp out. 8gb would be the bare minimum and would suggest 16gb if you like to game or have lot's tabs open. I went with 32gb cause prices are good.
Next on the agenda is to secure good internet. If I can manage that I would buy a 2nd monitor along with RTN and be able to have several track feeds going at once.
