SSD Benchmark Issue - Please Help!!!!!!

Hello,

I'm new to the forums. I've looked around a lot and decided to post. I just built a new PC and for some reason when I play games like Starcraft 2 I get random FPS drops from 100 to 0 that last 2 seconds and then goes back up. This causes the game to freeze and then speed up to catch up. I've updated all drivers, checked heating, etc etc. I ran a bench on my SSD using HD Tune 2.55 and think my SSD is spiking out causing the game to lag. Can you please look at these screenshots to see if this benchmark looks normal? Windows 7 64 and my games run from my SSD.

Can you post a screen shot of AS SSD Benchmark, so we can review what controller is installed and if aligned properly (no need to run the test just show the screen shot).

I remember there was problems with stuttering on certain controllers for the 0006 firmware for c300. Have you tried flashing your c300 to 0007 firmware? I'm currently using the c300 also and I didn't upgrade to 0006 till 0007 came out and I just flashed it up to 0006 then straight to 0007.

What's this and how?

Found it under Hardware IDs. Looks like I'm running 0006.
