I s'pose you could tell my transfer speeds which drive was inside. I need to check mine. I will say that it's pretty snappy. Mine was doing transfers of files around 15MB-100MB and was hitting around 110MB/sec write speed.
I agree with blinx on that too...8 was weird for the first day or two...then I realized how freaking fast it is and that the start menu is now a screen. There's always google if you can't figure something out too!
Not that I ever had issues with. When you make changes in the BIOS and save them and restart, it does the pause and restart dance, but never once had an issue with restarting with it. BIOS is fully updated to last known update before I dismantled to build my i7 system.
Selling off some old but well-cared-for equipment. I'd give a bit of a deal to someone who wants both.
Noctua NH-U12P for socket 775 but according to the website can be used on socket 1366 or 1155, etc as well with some connectors for about $10. $40

it's interesting to me as well. Not to start a browser war but I've been switching between chrome and firefox for a few months now and FF always seems "sticky" to me compared to Chrome. FF will hang when I switch a tab and show as "not responding" far more often than Chrome. Could it be that...
Thanks for reassuring me on this. Since this is my first sandy bridge I wanted to make sure there wasn't some way I was accidentally doing like 1.7V or something, lol.
So this may have been asked before but I've googled like a madman and can't seem to find anything definitive. I just bought my 2600k+mobo. I'm working on oc'ing it. So some folks seem to use a fair amount of LLC and a bit of offset, while others nearly shut off LLC and use offset. I have two...
Just the other day on slickdeals I saw the m4 128GB SSD for 139.99 (129.99 for new customers of buy.com). If you can go lower on the video card, you might want to go amd 7750 (or 7770 would be similar to 6770 I think). It's a bit newer and probably more power efficient.
This SSD uses a marvell controller. Supposedly Marvell is coming out with a new controller soon. Probably just trying to move the stock while it still has more value. Once that new one comes out, the demand for this one will increase. That being said, I love my Crucial m4 128GB!
I'm listening in on this. I have 1 m4 128GB on my core2quad system right now. I have another m4 128gb sitting on my desk awaiting the arrival of my sandy bridge stuff so I can raid 0 them. my main use is photoshop/lightroom. I'm wondering if I should just add it as another disk and use as...
While not exactly what you might be looking for, Intel is going to support TRIM for RAID on their onboard controllers with Intel RST 11.5 all the way back to ICH9(!).
