Your question is more akin to , can you run blu ray disc on a DVD reader?

whats gotten up your ass man im not the reason you cant run the game fine im just looking to see if anyone has found a fix
chill brother

i mean it will run on a HDD yea ... but this will cause alot of problems like crashes, long loading times, stutters, FPS drops and so on. Forget now Finaly the thinking of using a HDD for Games, use your HDD for your workflow and the SSD for games, but even the HDD will be a nightmare in modern Aplications. It is a tech from the past, why even try to keep it alive ? you need more storage ? get a cloud service.
M2 SSD's nowdays cost you less money then HDD's did back then with the same amount of space.

I thought at this point you would have realized this game can't be run on HDD. Whenever I see ppl asking questions about whether this game could be run on HDD, most ppl first read the minimum and recommended harware specs on any game.

the only new games ive had problems with running on hdd were space marine 2, hogwarts legacy and that monkey game which i dont remember its name. all ue games so i dont think its a new game problem its more of a ue problem which this game was built on

crashes and stutters are the only concerns i have, so what if it takes 2 mins to load i can just get some tea
the games are getting bigger and not in a good way and to top everything off 2 or more tb ssds arent cheap at all

You are telling me that you never bother to read specifications first for new games? Isn't that what you do with console games as well, but not in the way you would with pc, but nevertheless the same?

dude i have a 3070 im pretty sure i can run the games. even the devs dont test on hdd to say yeah it can run no stutter on those or not

Your gaming PC shouldnt have its secondary storage (SSD/NVME) even close to full, for performance. Asking about running these games on a HDD is just insane. None of your memory should be close to full when gaming.

about the modern apps you make money from working not playing games so theres no justification for moving ♥♥♥♥ like adobe and autodesk suite to other drives

It will run on a HDD, but it will hardly be worth the effort. The games stream assets require atleast a SSD. It is up to you to test, but i highly recommend to switch things up.

I am not a dude by the way. It's not just gpu that matters in pc. It's the overall spec to your hardware for building a pc to run games.

ever seen someone pair a modern gpu with a 4th gen intel cpu and some sweet ddr3 rams? didnt think so mate

[goodbye_bonito]

Why wouldn't it run? Game does not know what storage device you have. Experience might be different on per game basis, but there is zero reason for it to not run.

I am not going to discuss technical stuff with gamers, not going into this rabbit hole again. But at the very least you might need to gather some I/O statics during game session before making baseless statements.

I was never into pc building until lately, but one thing that I have always known is is that you can't just have one hardware being really expensive and the rest of pc parts being old. Having said that, my argument still stands.

ill just play it later i dont even care its just a game. stellar blade is a nice wait tho. i hope they dont butcher it like other sony ports

it's not like console at all to play a pc game. your entire pc hardware has to synchronize. just remember that and you'll get what i mean.

i havent played games on a console in like 15 years i think i know about bottleneck by now
