Will a 60GB SSD be enough for windows 10
So I have got myself another computer for most work - an old one dual core - gt 710 gpu - ubuntu linux. It is surprisingly good for all my non gaming applications - and cheap.
Of course there are much less of the update & privacy headaches of windows 10.

I am presently using windows 7 professional machine for gaming - i7-3770k - gtx 1070 & 32 GB DDR3 1600 Mhz - to be for use by windows 10. The present 120GB boot drive will be going into the other linux machine.

Support for windows 7 will be ending in the non too distant future to will eventually need to stop using it.

I am swapping drives around and would like to have it for a GAMING ONLY machine.

So I hope 60GB is enough for a boot SSD.
I will likely install the free windows 10. I see no reason to pay for windows 10 it for an exclusivly gaming machine.

So I will still need to install some things on it such as:

MSi afterburner & gaming App
Antivirus
Firewall
Drivers & software for components.
Teamspeak

Also primocache & Process Lasso to speed things up a bit.

& Not much else.

All games will be installed on a hard drive with another couple of 60 SSDs in raid 0 for caching - using primocache.

I can turn off the hibernation saving space and possibly the pagefile.

So will it fit on a 60GB ssd?
I hope to know before installing everything to find out no and have to do it all again.
I am keen to do this WITHOUT spending any more money.

It'll work but it'll wear out the SSD quickly. The larger the capacity the longer it takes to wear out an SSD. 120gb is not much more than 60gb and will have over twice the lifespan.
