Finally making the order!!!!!

with room left for two more, if you can't read english then I can't help you.

64gb - 51.2gb = 12.8gb

which is plenty for two more, not all games are dual disk install monsters.

fail.

p. s the nvidia tech demos are 2.7gb on my install, so that's more room avalible.

lmao... It's ok, I'll be the bigger man now and walk away.
To the OP, sorry for taking over the thread.
 
Have to agree with Vir on this one 60gb is just not sufficient nowadays with the new game nowadays between 7-10gb (Not including mmo's) space on a 60gb SSD is gonna be scarce at present and the Samsung F3 is sufficient speed for me and with 1tb of space i cant see my running out of gameing space!

Lets see atm
Windows 7 : 10.5Gb
Adobe Master Suite 5 + Windows Office 10 : 11Gb~
Aion: 13Gb~
Kane and Lynch 2: 8Gb
=48.5Gb
Thats what 2 games and my much needed adobe/windows applications giving me about 1 games worth of space to mess around with not including little applications.

it just depends on the user at the end of the day but samsung F3 is sufficient speed and SSD's are on the up so give it 6months and ur beable to pick up 2-300gb SSD's for roughly the same price which will be perfect todays gamer.

Why are people are getting a fuss over games on a SSD? the performance increase isn't that large! just very fast loading times that will be noticeable.

Get the SSD and stick on your 2/3 most played games, install the rest on the other drive.

Yep thats all I do too, have my most played games and stuff I need to run at startup, installed on there with my OS, and then other stuff on my standard drives, not really hard to do. And I've only got a 64gb drive, If you were stupid with what you installed there you would soon fill it up, but with a bit of thought it all works out great. (Well for me anyway)
And got to say its been the single most upgrade Ive actually used and noticed the real difference straight away, been my one upgrade I was a little doubtful over too but when I did it was well chuffed.

Thanks but there are certain things that i am just not prepared to change and u managed to identify each one
 
Why spend this amount of money on a PC when there are fewer and fewer games coming out for PC's? or am I missing something?

There are?

I better sell my stuff asap.....



But seriously, there are loads of PC releases. And with the stagnation of the console market expect even more in future.

Civ 5 later this year :D
 
crysis2?

one early preview I read said the console version looked horrid compared to a graphic settings maxed out on a pc.

I hope you are right. I always gauge the state of a pc/computer/console's on the quantity and quality of the magazines available, the state of the PC mags reminds of the Amiga mags when they were in serious decline.
 
but with the internet at are finger tips, pc mags were always going to die out slowly.

there are still plenty of console mags, probably because browsing the net on one of these machines is not as natural/simple. you know what I mean.

hell, I even heard on the radio today, that the oxford english dictionary may stop being published in ten years time, due to the net, and mobile phones having built in dictionaries
