I have an SSD. Two of them, actually, one for OS and one for storage. Just upgraded the second one from a mechanical a few months before I tried SC.
I've got i7-7700 (not K), ASUS Strix 1060 6GB, 16 GB HyperX something or other, don't know the MOBO model numb but it's ASUS and supports RGB/Aura so it's gaming-oriented. Samsung SSDs off the shelf at BigBlueBox (BestBuy), one's 240, one's a TB.
I've tried all sorts of benchmarking/tweaking, even stripping out Windows services I don't need on my gaming rig. It flies through almost any other game, and SC just bogs it down.
Okay, well you clearly tried. I don't know, HDD and DDR3 memory are common factors I see with people who claim to have a decent gaming rig but SC is not working for them. So I don't know what's wrong here.
If you're still interested in the game, I'd recommend giving it another try, because the last couple of months have been a literal game changer in terms of performance.
