I am thinking of re-installing my BF4 on my SSD. My game is around 48gb and i have 54gb of space left on my drive, would i see a really noticeable decrease in loading times etc? I just want to know if it is worth using up the last of the space i have on there.

You will see a difference, but if I remember correctly there's no advantage online as they released (or they are going to) a patch which I believe added a countdown timer.

Yeah i am sometimes still one of the first into the start of a game even when i only have it on my hard drive.

Even if I give a friend of mine a 10 second head start, my little 840 EVO still bears him to the game.

HDD can't touch SSD.

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
