I don't know if this is just one bad review among many positive reviews, or if there are many bad reviews, you do the research.

Please be specific about the exact make and model of your graphics card.

If you need to save some money somewhere, the disk which you will store your photos on does not need to be an SSD, it can be a relatively slow old fashioned HD, you will never notice the difference. Disk where you place the catalog file should be a relative fast disk like an SSD.
