well finally after waiting for a really long time my ssd drive came in today.....here are a few pics...i havent installed it in the system as yet as i need to remove one o my HDD's first and then install this baby. but seriously when i saw it in person for a second i went into shock just because of the size of the box. first thoughts were....thats it??..this small??...is it empty??...have i been ripped off???.....even after seeing the drive i was a bit confused for a second as to how small can it be....i mean how is it possible, but still quite a small piece of an equipment which outperforms even the veloci raptor drives. here are the pics:D














OCZ claims on the box that it can READ UPTO 250MB/SEC and WRITE UPTO 180MB/SEC.

OK JUST RAN THE HDTUNE READ AND WRITE BENCHMARK. here are the results

READ


WRITE


i think the speeds are upto the mark....if there are any other benchies you guys know for HDD'S do let me know. im gonna be installing my o.s and games on this little monster so will let you know the load times that i get.

well as far as gpu's are concerned im not looking to buy anything until i know that cards are fully optimised for dx11. but im damn sure that im gonna switch back to nvidia...ATI is excellent no doubt...this card is doing wonders for me....but the added on support that nvidia gets is also a thing to be considered.

@devil...bro its not just a normal HDD...its an SSD....look at the transfer rates and everything....you'll get my point.

Na mate, still a overkill, 120GB HDD, 340 pounds.

Since you are satisfied, there shouldn't be a problem.


Me too waiting for benchmarks :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    MS one upping Sony in catching the biggest L in gaming
    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
