Posted August 13, 201014 yr After 3 months of working and I decided to treat myself. I ended up getting a OCZ Agility 2 60GB. I am installing all of my software right now so it will be a few hours before I can start getting bench marks etc. But my WEI is at 7.7. I almost got a 1055T but I wanted more performance. There is a big difference with SSD's.Will post more later. Edited August 13, 201014 yr by LUZR4LIFE
August 13, 201014 yr Author Alright. I was up til 3am installing OS etc then woke up at 6:30am to tweak bench mark etc. I can restart in 41 secs. and boot in 17. I don't think I let the TRIM do it's thing before benchmarking, but my scores are below.
August 14, 201014 yr Author Wow, nice!It was well worth the money. CS5 opens in under 3 sec. and Nero in under 1. Here is a CDM bench.
August 20, 201014 yr Author Niceee, so would you say I should get one?You can spend a lot of money on a CPU and will not see the improvement you get with a SSD, so yeah I recomend it. Just make sure it's a Gen 2 (SandForce controller).
August 20, 201014 yr I think I'm gonna get one of those next month but first need a laptop for it, how about this one :naughty: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220700 or this one ...http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220696

August 26, 201014 yr I would go with the N61 because of the GPU.Eh, I was thinking about it but... I'm gonna go with Asus G51JX-X1 (1920x1080 ...full HD!) and the same SSD as yours OCZ Agility 2 OCZSSD2-2AGTE60G 2.5" 60GBhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834220700http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227542...I'm about to place my order :naughty: :dribble: :sweatingbullets:done, just spent it $1357 :doh: Edited August 26, 201014 yr by dareckibmw
October 21, 201014 yr yeah i got an SSD, massive difference in performance, i can open all Office 2010 apps (at the same time) in less than a second on first run lmao! Chrome just pops up quicker than i can blink Edited October 21, 201014 yr by Legolash2o

October 21, 201014 yr I've been reading on a mag about an SSD that's cheap and really fast I'm thinking of getting it the thing is it's write speed is 70MB and the read was 200-something or 300-something MB.

If your looking to save money, get a 40G but 60G is good for OS, software and 3-4 games.
October 21, 201014 yr Author That would be telling Anyways i recommend anyone to get an SSD.LMAO.What geek doesn't bench and tell. Edited October 21, 201014 yr by LUZR4LIFE

October 22, 201014 yr Author yeah its for trim.I already did that.I followed the OCZ tweak on OCZ forums.
October 23, 201014 yr I would stick with a sandfocre controller. If your looking to save money, get a 40G but 60G is good for OS, software and 3-4 games.This is the SSD I was talking about... 64GB Crucial C300 I'm thinking of getting that for my new build.
