an i5 is to much for the office pc its nearly double. For a home pc I would get one but with the pennies Im saving the idea was to get a SSD and a bigger hdd. Do all SSD's have trim?
Whats a good read and write speed? the ocz vertex Read 185MB/s Write 90MB/s but OCZ 60GB Agility 3 "claims" - Read 525MB/s Write 475MB/s.
I'd prefer to build it myself as it pretty easy. I just hate using TIM if you still get it these days.
i3 will do the job then I guess if it is just business orientated.
I would personally avoid OCZ SSD's, they had horrendous problems and poor customer support, just google it and you will see.... ok almost all SSD suppliers had problems with the original ones but I would avoid OCZ like the plague.... I got a crucial one and it has been great, just make sure it is SATA III and not SATA II as that makes a big difference, and that your motherboard supports SATA III obviously and you are good to go with super fast data transfer....
I couldn't go back now I am so used to loading up applications in an instant and no loading times in games etc. It even loads iTunes in about 10 seconds which considering it has over 300GB of music in it is no mean feat
Yeah just read about them. The negative reviews where at the bottom. I ordered a crucial m4. The ocz speeds are mad but alot of people say they crash alot. I think its something to do with the sandforce controller.
I love speccing up pc's though. Came in at £250 which I'm super happy about. I already have a case.
Will the onboard graphics handle hd video?
Thanks again
