Not having an SSD in this level of build is just insulting.

How can you "not need an SSD"? You're willing to shell out this much money and you don't know how great the benefits of an SSD are?

2K isn't that much money....  

If you're forgoing an SSD for HDD, it is.

$2000 is at the high end of a PC build, so it makes no sense that he wouldn't shell out the few extra dollars for an SSD at that point. (Also $2000 is a fair amount of money pal)  

Is it possible to have an SSD and a HDD?

You sure?
Okay, collect $2,000 dollars and come back within 2 days.
