2 tips to save tons of SSD space:
1 - Use this GUI for Windows' own compression/on-the-fly decompression - https://github.com/ImminentFate/CompactGUI/releases
I usually use the 2nd strongest compression with 0 performance impact.
2 - You can add the ability to Symbolic Link (acts as if the file is there) to your right click and just dump movie files of a game to a storage drive. - https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/linkshellextension.html
Surprisingly I've seen zero performance impact from this either. I expected perhaps a stutter or something as the HDD loads up movie files, but nothing so far.
Just my main game folder alone has saved ~100GB not including all the GBs of movie files dumped to an HDD.
Some games already have their files somewhat compressed so you won't save much if anything, others do squat for compression and you can reduce the file sizes to a fraction.
Final thing: If you want weak compression you don't even need the GUI, you can just select it in the folder options.

And 2060 is recommended for raytracing. We all knows how that goes.

Finished that game few months back with DLC and loved that game, probably will replay it again
Who didn't play that game, please play it and enjoy it
I would add who have RTX 3090 please turn off DLSS, I remember I got lower FPS with DLSS enabled than without it
Hope this helps
Thanks, Jura

I'm guessing they are only giving away the base game. I only just got the Ultimate version on Steam. Again and i'm just guessing you can't "upgrade" from the base game to Ultimate unless you pay full price for it.
Same thing happened to Rage 2, i got it free on Epic but couldn't buy the DLC unless i bought the full game again. Which is stupid i know because they missed out on a sale for this DLC. DLC that can't be got unless you spend full price. F That....
