    ** TIME TO GET TRIIGGERED BY VERTAGEAR **

    z77x ud3h & MSATA?

    Cheers for that link - quite informative. Seems primarily aimed at laptops then as the 3gb/s limitation means it does not perform as well as the 2.5" SSD connected toa 6gb/s port. Perhaps price of these msatas will drop quickly. Thanks :)

    z77x ud3h & MSATA?

    minor issue

    Argh - this board is temperamental :P Turns out they work best when plugged into the two bottom USB ports as thats Intel based as opposed to the other ports which need the 3.0 drivers and are a bit picky. Crisis over.. and handy info to know I guess!

    Upgrade of parts - spoilt for choice

    Good shout on the ram. I was questioning it due to the latencies but reading the reviews I should be able to get these lowered during clocking. I had almost gone for the corsair dominator platinum 12800 ram. Checking out the other mobos and also was looking at CPU coolers. Current basket is...

    EVGA GTX 660
