I have a laptop that has the Intel GS45 chipset. 2.4GHz C2D and 2GB Ram.
I've set up everything optimally for my SSD. I don't think there are any tweaks left to be done. All drivers and firmwares are up to date.
Benchmarks are pretty good, and boot time is extremely fast. However one that that puzzles is the speed Photoshops and Firefox takes to launch. From the video's I've seen on youtube, they're pop out in a flash. There are also some of those videos where 60 programs are launched at a time. Never tried it before.
I'm wondering if my I/O controller or southbridge, the Intel ICH9R is the culprit or not? Maybe it's inferior in some ways? I'm pretty new to hardware so please explain abit, thanks.
