Got the ram installed and now doing the drivers for Sata 6gb/s controller card. (=

Surprised you're ordering from the UK if you live in Belgium! I would never have thought to do it when I was living in Antwerp :P

DPD seem okay to me, not as good as some though!

I think DPD are really good, a quick look on the tracking site on delivery day gives you the hour time slot they will be delivering in and for me they have never missed it, a couple of years ago I had a spell when I was having stuff delivered from OC once or twice or a week for several weeks and the DPD guy was great, got to know him a little and were on first name terms :D
 
I've had issues with them non delivering, at least I think it was them :p

The ram was a tight fit:

The special offers make it worth it sometimes...


Like the card I just ordered was cheaper than getting it from other retailers even with p&p added on.

For smaller items i just send them to my dad and he forwards them :D

Just checked your screenies looking good hope you enjoy the new kit
 
ahh so you fixed the ssd speed issue

i didnt know you were using an add in pci card,i thought you were running of the mb ports
 
I'll give COD a blast when I figure out how to open the console :P

@Wazza: Ah yeah, I only have 2 6gb/s on mobo and wanted to keep OS SSD direct with mobo in case of problems with the cheapish card. Got the OS SSD and new 2TB HDD running of the card now though, so making use of the extra 6gb/s slots. (:
 
Anyone know a benchmark for measuring game loads etc? I want to copy my steam programs now but it'd be great to compare the times between mechanical and SSD raid :D

Moving my data to new data drive:

I'm pretty sure that's a hell of a lot faster than HDD to HDD, but far from SATA3 speeds I think?

Edit: Noticed a gain of about 40fps on Arma II (DayZ mod) using same settings as the old 460 SC; running the 670 at stock atm, will OC later maybe
