With 6GB of RAM, HD or SSD should not matter, only on the loading times when the game starts. There's plenty of RAM to use, i can wait a bit for it to load completely (or with a bigger bubble) then have to undergo a stutter everytime something is loaded into memory. Same issue with DCS:A-10C which has stutters but which i have seen only use 3,5GB of memory at max.
Peeps then rush out to buy an SSD only to find that the game loads much faster on startup and that the hickups maybe are smaller but that they still suffer from stutter because the RAM is not entirly used.

BTW: as long as the game isn't patched up to a finished state (there's a lot of work still to be done on this one), there's no need to rush out and buy new hardware. What would you do if this was the X-Box 360 (or PS3 whetever) and the released game you buy is delivered in this state? Go out and buy some new hardware in order to run it? Guess not.
