because friend, these people dont need garbage unknown $60 hard drives friend

if you arent a pc gamer then why do you need a SSD friend?

i want speed-- i want faster boot up time.. and less program lag--i can put multiple os's on it.. friend.

PC gaming isn't the only thing an SSD can benefit nor does it benefit games much, friend.

you can get motherboards with fast boot up times that have no connection to SSD drives at all..


and SSD dont improve gaming much

yall have fun in this thread buy whatever cheap ass SSD they throw at you


Yall out there thinking of champagne with a beer budget

I bought an SSD drive for my macbook a few months ago. It made all my games run a lot faster, and I can generally multitask without losing any speed. I'm loving it.

I'm not a gamer either....and I have a pair of SSDs.

One holds the OS and Adobe CS5.5

The other is for the project I'm working on at that given moment....scratch disks, etc.

But are they 60 GB

But are they 60 GB

The project one is.

I made the mistake of buying that one first for the OS...and then it became a pain in the ass installing programs and their plugins on different hard drives

So I started over and put the OS and programs on a 128....so yeah, don't attempt to use just a 64GB....will cause many headaches

Which was my whole point

I was just saying there are benefits beyond gaming

Do tell how an SSD improves in game performance? All an SSD does for games is faster initial load times. Games don't run off your drives, they run off of memory.

first off, games run off multiple components in your computer.. for instance some games require almost no memory at all to run them. While some are more processor related like Battlefield games, your hard drive is constantly working around games as well that is why hard drive speed is important, its a mixture of everything in your computer that makes a game run smooth.


The simple fact that you think games are ran off of memory lets me know you really dont want to have this discussion.. I mean Battlefield 3 came out last year, one of the most popular games, and is more reliant on your processor than your memory.


Guild Wars 2 just came out and is more reliant on CPU than anything else.

Yet BF3 fills up your video ram with as much data as it can put into it?

Stick to selling phones you dumb fakkit.

VRAM is being used up because of the resolution you are playing at with a mixture of AA and other shyt


am I really going to have this discussion with someone who obviously has no idea what they are talking about
