Posted August 15, 2014 Of course it's worth it! No computer I build will ever use a standard HDD for an OS drive anymore. It's the one upgrade you can get that you'll notice the impact immediately.

Posted August 15, 2014 Big games like BF4 load in only a few seconds. Love it. Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 16, 2014 The SSD is very noticeable if you do any multi tasking. I recently had a chance to revisit an OS running on a spinner drive and I was surprise to find that I could not even launch a few web browser windows while installing some software in the background.

Posted August 16, 2014 I understand that if you install your OS onto an SSD, boot up will be much faster. But to all those with a system built with an SSD for boot up, in you're honest opinion: Is it worth the extra money? Yes. I find it impossible to work on a PC with only a mechanical drive now. SSDs really are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 17, 2014 As mentioned a bunch of times, it's everything that speeds up. My reboot time is under 25 seconds (as timed by my friends on Mumble). That includes the time to type in my password for Windows 8 and to re-start Mumble and say "Back". Corsair Obsidian 250D | be quiet!

Posted August 17, 2014 USE SSD FOR booting up the OS and other stuff and USE A HYBRID DRIVE for mass storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted August 17, 2014 Yes Boot up is fast, programs are quick and responsive. Get at least a 120/128GB for OS and other programs (Firefox, Chrome etc.) or 250/256GB if you want to put some games on that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
