    Getting new SSD for Windows 8 and more...

    I do hear ARC100 and MX100 are really good value for the money. If I were to choose from these two, how do I decide?

    Gaming SSD?

    I need to replace my HDD with SSD for playing some games. Not sure what the difference is, but I read on OCZ that Radeon R7 is for gaming and Vector 150 is for enthusiasts. Anyone can help? And does this mean its better for the AMD platform?

    Looking for affordable yet good SSD

    Since they got bought by Toshiba, I think their RMA should be much better. Even the new ARC 100 seems to be getting them back in the game I think.

    Fractal Design Define R5 Reviews

    Gotcha, R4 was pretty popular, I guess R5 is just newer and improved. It does look really nice, I gotta check it out in person.

    X99 UD4 vs. X99 Extreme4

    cool, that's a pretty good deal! But you're getting it shipped from USA to NZ? Isn't the shipping cost and wait time longer?

    looks like a lot of people are talking about R5, what's so special about it? For $110, its not cheap.
