How spoiled are people with SSD's?

Nice, when I don't have a leg to stand on I usually fall-back to strawmans myself. It's a good way to get someone to insult you so you can storm out of an argument before you get completely cornered. OT: Yes people are spoiled with SSD's, and with no moving parts, reliability is already good...

Where do these SSD nay-sayers come from? Once you've seen how fast it is you never go back.

Choosing what to place on SSD

For most enthusiasts, 10 FPS is a marginal increase when I'm already rocking a solid frames count. But 5-7 seconds off every load screen in HL2 or having the load screens breeze by in SC2 is more than marginal for most enthusiasts.

Least Possible price for SSD.

So you're saying that if intel could come out tomorrow with a 50 dollar cheaper SSD, they wouldn't make a killing and outperform all their competitors and make their shareholders extremely happy? :hmm: :thumbsup:

Dropping screwdriver on mobo, plugged 1394 cable into USB header

I'm pretty sure just plugging it in without power didnt hurt anything. The screwdriver part is kinda wildcard. If you're really unlucky it might have done some damage, but I would say probably not.

I'm sure this gets asked constantly:

I would be mostly using the TIVO features of rewind pause, and fastforward live TV, I don't think I would need to record alot of episodes of any TV shows. Mainly: If there's a football game on, I would like to be able to watch it 30mins-1hour after kickoff, and then be able to quickly jump...

Thoughts on this barebones deal?

That's crafty! What case would you go with? I really like this combo. I'm probably going to get a Newegg credit card for the extra 15 duckets off too. :D Now to hunt for a sweet deal on a graphics card...

Thoughts on this barebones deal?

Yea I've heard Seagate has been a little iffy lately. But I would probably get an SSD and do most of the heavy lifting on that drive, like a 128gig and then put all my games and OS on it. Pretty tempting! It would really leave me alot of room for a sweet GPU and SSD which are the things i want...
