SSD question

Hi guys,

You gave me some advice on getting the Titan Triceratops as my first gaming pc (which I will be ordering next month).

I just had 1 question, the option of a SSD... If I was to add 1 of these what benefits would I get out of it?

Boot speed and loading times of the program you put on there would improve.

The biggest benefit is the boot into Windows time. Very Quick!

So fitting a 30gb SSD and load the OS on there would be possible? and thus boot the computer up faster?

Sorry I'm a complete noob to this!

Yeah boot times and the general speed of Windows will increase, and then any apps/games you put on will be faster too.

With a 30GB SSD you will easily fit the OS on there but you will probably struggle with all your apps/games on there too. My OS and apps on my laptop hit about 30GB and I don't have that any games at all.

If you can I'd stretch to a 40/60GB.

Think you've sold me on this now, thanks guys.

i would reccomend using 30GB only for OS, won't it be storing the win updates aswell?
