my config ASUS P6T based, Intel i7 with 6GB 1066 MHz 95o VAPORX ATI HD 5870. WINDOWS 7. 64 Excluding except with some video processing applications, for example, I did not see much difference with an old config and XP. The evaluation of all showed well that the weak point were the SATA HDD. With the SSD, it is not the same, finally a HDD up to it. Of course, some precautions because of the price, put only the operating system and common software for the rest to traditional SATA HDD. I also moved my documents, swap file and temp on a SATA HDD. Do not defragment SSDs WINDOWS disabled the backup (since I have true picture 2011), also hibernation, all this to keep only the essential and saving SSD disk space (21GB total occupation SSD) The access logs and files explorer is instantaneous A fact of life, it was necessary to start 1 min 45 to 2 min (about 100 log installed) to start windows with SSD it takes 25 seconds. As for me I am fully confident and I expect lower prices for higher capacity SSD as it is still the weak point. Tip: I have a TRUE IMAGE directly restore my system on the SSD, however, requires replace the master boot (with the windows disk, etc.). The challenge is to clear all the old windows files on the old partition, I managed with TUNEUP SHREDDER especially UNLOCKER, it takes a little patience but it works.
