Hey guys,
Alright, so here's my current build:
http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=20574848
I didn't order the parts yet, cause I keep running into different things. After a long conversation on the "new" build section, I decided on getting a SSD vs the Rampage 3. Now, I chose the Vertex 2; I've heard great reviews on it, and I was almost 100% sure of getting it. However, I just saw the RevoDrive X4 120GB. Here are the two drives:
RevoDrive:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227578&cm_re=ocz_revo_drive-_-20-227-578-_-Product
Vertex 2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?cm_re=ocz_vertex_2-_-20-227-590-_-Product&item=N82E16820227590
Both are 120GB. The price difference is pretty small, only 50 dollars. I'm willing to spend that extra 50 if the RevoDrive is worth it. What do you guys think? Or should I hold out on getting an SSD till the 3rd Gen's come out?.. Also, I realize the PCI-e one does not support TRIM because it's in RAID. What's the significance of that? Should I be worried about normal usage (windows + most used programs + 2-3 games) on the SSD, if I want to keep the system for about 4-5 years?
