I played wow for a while when it first came out. I'm pretty sure you will notice a difference transitting zones etc with a higher speed SSD like the crucial C300

I would get a Crucial 64GB C300, especially for gaming. With read speeds of 350Mb/s and a larger formatted capacity than Vertex 2E.
Bare in mind a 60GB Vertex means once formatted, you get around 55-56GB to store data on, compared to 60GB+ on the C300.

With your budget you would be a fool to buy anything other than 2nd hand for most things.

whats the point in an ssd if your a blizzard fanboy and your only using your ssd for os? once your in game it wont make a difference.

id get a c300 though and install os and some games/apps.

yeah man all the blizzard games will all be installed in ssd, whereas the rest of the files in hdd.

Unless you like new stuff and warranties.
