I've got a 60gb OCZ Vertex 2e atm and looking to upgrade to 120gig ssd for my OS and a few loading intensive games.
Apparently there are issues with my board running sata3 reliably due to crappy Marvell controller (GA-X58A-UD3R intel x58)
So my question is this - shall i just get a decent sata 2 or will sata 3 still be better performance in a sata 2 port?
Also, If I get a new ssd is it worth running it separate to what I already have for gaming purposes or just ditching the OCZ and putting both the OS and my games on the new drive?
I don't want to raid.
