And you did something I should have, you went with the SSD drive, I was trying to save a little money after buying the processors so I just went 2-250 gig sata3 striped, but windows is telling me that the read/write is the weak spot in the system.

I've read about windows having trouble recognizing the SSD drive during install, let me know how it works since I'm thinking of going ahead and getting one.

Have Fun
I heard people saying they had problems with that but I hope I won't run into that issue, I hear more about TRIM on ssd's and the ones that I purchased offer TRIM with a firmware update.
