Intel SRT

[Lawliet93]

Hi guys. 

 

First of all, i would like to ilustrate my situation.

 

I still use a regular HDD as my system boot drive (due to the fact,  that I wanted a very, very capable gaming rig (i5 2500k OC + r9 280OC) for less then 600 euro), but it´s getting a little bit slow (I get some long loading times while playing the witcher 3 or when my system is booting).

 

So I decided to go with a 64GB kingston ssd now as a cache drive (using intel SRT, because of my gigabyte Z68MA D2H B3).

 

Does anybody have any experience with that SSD and SRT? 

 

IS intel SRT a good option for my usage scenario?

why don't you buy a 128 gb or even 256 gb ssd for games and os? i think this is the best solution and faster

Recommendations: Crucial MX100 or MX200

I know that, but I am on a low budget and... my Program filesx86 folder is over 235 GB. A 120GB SSD is no going to cut it (and it is just 10 euros more expensive than a 64GB version, but due to the 64GB limitation of SRT it makes no point for me to buy the 120GB one).

 

What I am trying to achieve is to cut down loading times (games, programs and even boot times) and I am not looking for the best perfomance possible and after reading some reviews I decided that a my goals can be achieved with SRT.
