Hello all,
I am new to this concept of SSD drives i have Windows 7 and a Asus X48 motherboard, I am looking at the OCZ Vertex 2 60gig drive, now when i load Win7 on this drive should i also install my Battlefield Bad Company 2 on there as well or would that decrease the speed of the drive and what about cash on a separate drive ?

All help on this would be great thanks.

You can install games on it no problem, it won't affect the performance of the drive any more than any other software. One thing to bear in mind though is that the performance may drop if you fill the drive over about 50-55gb.

Only with loading times or possibly if you are low on RAM.

it wont improve frame rates, but will massively lower the time it takes to load levels etc
