Definitely, all depends on budget and individual choice based on the OP's needs (whether more but slower, or less but faster, or more but faster storage etc.). Without details about budget and uses we can only be guessing what OP needs.

I was going off the "gaming" description and the small amount of storage in the original build. But yes, it always depends!
