Bobinator replied to Bobinator's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etcHey there benorg...Yes...as I mentioned in my first paragraph, I read a lot of responses to other people asking help with new gear. Your position to wait the one/two months for Ivy Bridge is well known and was considered. It seems there's alway a FSX killer right around the corner. But I'm jumping in right now.By any chance, do you know the answer to adding the small sst to improve perfrmance?ThanksBobinator
