Their are a number of games out their that stutter due to mechanical HDD's not being so good for loading data on the fly, fallout 3 being one. The best way to reduce the stuttering and practically eliminate it is an SSD. I was think about buying 2 of these for raid 0 setup.

I have never done a raid 0 setup. Does Raid 0 setup combine the read and writes of the 2 SSD drives? Also would buying a 240gb OCZ revodrive be more ideal? or would it be pointless? The SSD setup up i am getting is for gaming. Like i said some people see it as pointless however a number of games do stutter due to the loading of data on the fly. Mechnical drives are not as good as SSD's for Loading data very quick so i have read.
 
The 240 Revo does look very nice and the price is quite good too. Its a shame it does not support trim though.
 
Is trim vital? I though the dons said that it might support it in the future? The 2 SSD i was planning on getting would leave me in the same boat anyways as i cannot use tirm with a raid 0 setup.
