    Are OCZ Vertex 4 SSDs still bad?

    I was going to buy a 128GB Samsung 830 SSD for $99 but then I saw that the OCZ Vertex 4 SSD has almost 3 times the write speed and 10k faster read speed. Should I go for the OCZ Vertex 4 or are they still bad SSDs?

    7800GTX to 9800GT 3DMark06 score DROP?

    thank you for the help! I guess Ill live with the x8 then :) Just thought it was strange that it works in the slot at x8 but not x16. At least I can use it at x8 instead of being forced to x1. Thank you for all your help! I greatly appreciate it!
