Like obviously not for newer cutting edge games but for newer indie games and older AAA games?

I play pretty much all my games from a HDD. I once moved Control (2019) and DMC5 (2018) to my SSD, barely any difference. though i suspect it would probably have a bigger impact with recent games.

  Have you tested Control with the most recent update? I think minimum system requirements went up.
