I need a new boot drive for my workstation (must be Sata).
I can get a 2 TB Evo or 4TB QVO for about the same price.

The QVO is slower and has a smaller write life but is a thing to worry about in real life?
It will be running Windows if that matters

Not if you plan on installing any games.

A boot/system drive doesn’t typically contain games.

Why wouldn't it? A lot of people install games to the default location and the default location for a lot of things, games included, is C:\Program Files
