    Hello, I've purchased the following RAM sticks: Crucial Ballistix Tactical - DDR3 16 GB : 2 x 8 GB - DIMM 240-pins - 1600 MHz / PC3-12800 - CL8 Though I noticed these specifications weren't set in BIOS. So I checked it out. I had to manually set the CAS latency to 8. That went well. However I cannot set it to 1600Mhz.. My motherboard (Asrock C216 WS) supposedly supports it... I've attached some screenshots for clarification. 160305165200.BMP 160305165207.BMP Any suggestions?

    here is one I bought. It does exactly the same as the one another user posted here. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01798WOJ0

    SSD speeds don't really affect game performance when it comes to FPS. Only the loading parts of games will be faster (loading the level, textures and other stuff).

    Well come on, give me some proof then.

    PassMark scores: Intel Core i5-4690K @ 3.50GHz: 7,717 AMD FX-8350: 8,951 I'm not sure where you get your info from but his AMD is better.

    You have one of the best AMD CPUs out there. I would consider upgrading the GPU first.

    *Looks at cpu benchmarks* Honestly I doubt that AMD CPU is the bottleneck here.

    Hello, I currently have the C216 WS from Asrock. It's not the newest board but I can't complain. I was wondering if any of you guys have experience in using the SM951 as boot device in an older motherboard. Because I'm really interested in getting that SSD. I just want to make sure I can select it as boot device. For the record I want to connect the SSD with a M.2 to PCI-E x4 adapter. (this one to be exact) Thanks in advance!

    I would recommend a 2.5" to 3.5" bracket. With that your SSD will fit like a 3.5" harddrive.

    I heard this is a common problem with the NVMe drivers of Windows 10. Install the NVMe drivers offered by Samsung instead.

    I just read some articles on the interwebs. And it's kinda scaring me. But they say that not even all motherboards support booting from PCI-E. Regardless if it's AHCI or not. Do you perhaps know if my motherboard supports that?

    If it still crashes please check the Windows Event Viewer for error logs.

    Yeah I've noticed

    Try to use Recuva or a similar tool to see if the drive has been used before. You can see deleted files with it.

    Alright thank you! In that case no NVMe drive for me. Though I have found a nice alternative. For example the Samsung SM951. With sequential read speeds of 2150 MB/s and write 1200 MB/s. But it's AHCI! So I should be fine with that
