Mobo: Ggabyte X99- Gaming 5P
CPU: Intel i7 6850 @4.03 GHz 6 cores 12 threads
RAM: Kingston Fury Black (4x8GB) DDR4 2666MHz Quad Channel
GPU: EVGA GTX 1080Ti FTW3 11264 MB GDDR5X
OS: Win7 64 bit Ultimate installed on Intel SSD 730 series 240GB
SH3: Installed on Samsung SSD 850 EVO M.2 500GB

This is kind of the bare essentials, ok that being said, it still takes anywhere from 10 - 20 minutes to load a game save. My experience is if you have an extensive mod list your load times can be big !!

My mod list I hear you ask.......................

I also run the 4GB patch, and SH3 is launched through SH3Commander via SH3F.

As you can see, there is no diffinitive answer to shorter load times, I might add I have also tried RAID setups, these did not help either.

So that is the best I can offer, I hope it helps, if not, it may help you decide where and where not to spend your hard earned

Best regards.
