Personally, I think once they start going near or below the recommended settings requirements for a game you want to play. It could be that your sons just want the most up to date graphics cards when they're released. Your computer will do fine with 1 SSD for the OS and a few games and primarily used programs, while the massive hard drive would be used for everything else.
TY. Appreciate the advice.

All the best.
