The outgoing year 2020 has exhausted us with self-isolation, problems with jobs/salaries and incomprehensible expectations from
future.But the long-awaited New Year holidays will soon begin, which means that all fans of computer games will finally have enough time to forget to finally play games that were postponed until better times. In order for games to launch and load levels faster, they need an SSD (in 2020 this is no longer a luxury, but a necessity). And, if your computer is not the latest to install an NVMe PCI-e 3.0 x4 SSD into it, purchase a 2.5" SATA-III will be a better deal in terms of cost per gigabyte. We have here one of the modern and good samples for this recipe - GOODRAM IRDM Pro gen.2.
