Now this is what i am talking about, ultimate power and performance, i would love to have to have these in my system right now, instant windows

i hope overclockers get them in stock or at least do a pre order with ocz

love the spec

read and write speeds of up to 540 MB/s and 490 MB/s, respectively. now this is true SSD

As I mentioned there, you may as well just raid a couple of vertexes on your onboard. Cheaper and It'd need to be capable of >600MB/s to outclass onboard and justify taking up a x4 slot.

$450 for 120GB (which likely won't have the performance of the top end models) That works out as around £360 after VAT.

No that works out at £500 plus VAT thanks to the unique nature in which this country operates.

We never get the real prices that those in the US get!

damn but that would have been a good thought anyway, i am just looking at my system and thinking which slot to give up....lol;

hmm, looked into it a little deeper and it's actually a couple of Sandforce controllers on it, not Indilinx, so it could be better value than I thought.
