I went with a 60 gb but it was going for $60 after rebate, a OSZ Agility 3. I'd get one that's 6gig SATA and not 3.

I like my 60gb but sometimes space does appear an issue.... It is a huge pain because I also have a lot of SDKs for windows and etc and some of them don't allow you to install on anything but the boot drive (or so it seems, as that is never an option. I might be missing something if anyone would happen to know?). I still have 14gb free right now, normally would be around 3gb~ so it isn't all bad by any means, it is just my one complaint.

I think if you can find a good deal on a 120gb I would go with it. That's my opinion though. If you do nothing but gaming a 60gb with windows can probably do 2 good sized games easily, maybe even 3

i got a 128 gb crucial c300 SSD. I personally would not like to go any smaller in size otherwise I'd be fighting with the recycle bin all the time.

I'd recommend 128 or if you got money to burn 256 gb crucial m4.

Well you can always set your recycle bin to 0 so it purges everything immediately. Have to be more careful, but it works for me. I wonder if there's a way to have that also transferred and managed on the data drive?

also, you may be able to overclock that a bit without any harm to the system.
dick around with the configs if you can to see what you can get out of it.

Nothing in particular Zartan. The kids just decided my old box was a vending machine and fried it dropping change in the front panel...

Amd? No thank you. When I started building pc's I got talked into them by you cheapasses. Never again.
