Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

I will probably wait until Windows 8 sees the light, as I won't have the money needed before, if I get any unforeseen expenses. Seems like TRIM is just an extra gimmick, if I get that. I write a maximum of 10 gb in a day, and that would be in a weekend with nothing else to do.

Strange partitioning (WINXP)

Well, to sum the problem up, I tried formatting the beforehand empty D: partition on my single HDD. It went fine, the computer worked fine - until I rebooted. It seemed that the D: partition was needed, as it didn't detect the Windows XP. The obviously strange thing, was that basically all...

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

Thanks a lot! All the answers I needed in on1 place. 2-4 times the speed of regular HDD is okay for me, right now. But I will maybe wait a little, and finally get Windows 7, and a PCI-e SSD, as it seems the easiest way of doing it. It might get cheaper when I even get the money for it, hehe. I...

Are there any websites that

I honestly think you will have to look each of them up seperately, and then compare them.

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

Seems like the Intel SSD's will be my best bet, as I can use it on XP, and then later on buy Windows 7. Motorheader (Great band, by the way!), it has a PCI-e X1 connector, but does a PCI-e to SATA3 adapter exist? (Sorry, I have been living under a rock, concerning PC hardware the last year)...

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

If that is so... I think my mobo will be a huge bottleneck. M3N-h-Hdmi.

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

Seems like Intel offers their own TRIM-software, and OCZ offers a worse software, but still better than nothing.

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

Neither, I look here: http://www.proconsult.dk/katalog/m_sto/s_sto-hdd4/ As it has a physical shop, and is the cheapest in Denmark, for most single parts, but strangely enough, the most expensive for a full build. Okay, so 500mb read speed is Sata 3, but how much could I squeeze out of a PCI-e...

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

To be honest, I don't think I have a reason, other than the extra cost. I haven't buggled much with Windows 7. One issue might be the automisation with updates, pop-up updates, and the verify screen before every single installation or update. But I guess it can be turned off? I also have a hard...

Is XP a bottleneck for a SSD?

And this means in ANY way possible, as I want to know if I can get the full potential of using a SSD. I am going to use the SSD as main drive - with no other drive. It is Windows XP Home Edition. And will there be any difference in compatibility, if I choose either a Sata 2 (My motherboard...

Oblivion:Fighter's Stronghold DLC

It was once a buyable plug-in, but Bethesda have had some issues with it, so it is currently only available bundled with Steam's GOTY. http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Fighter%27s_Stronghold

Trying to maximize streaming quality of my uploads; confused.

It will NOT compress if you go over 8000kbps. It is just "recommended" by Google. If you read this part: Variable bitrate. No bitrate limit required, though we offer recommended bit rates below for reference And my personal opinion: It makes no sense putting a "recommended bitrate", as you...
