Just a remind, SSD can't improve in game performance.

Tx sir.
I thought that a faster reading HD would be better for games.

A lot of your hardware is TOP notch cutting edge but it won't actually give you that much improvement in game..

You could save quite a bit going with an i5 2500K CPU, and buying a 6990 is crazy right now.. get a 6970 and a mobo that will eventually allow Xfire if you want bleeding edge graphics performance.. I think 1 6970 will be plenty for this game..

Looks good, I have a similar spec.

My SSD seems to help with the stutters, at least I don't get them and did not on day one release of IL2 CoD, it certainly helps with loading stuff quicker, if you can afford it ... why not.

Enjoy.

Only a minor suggestion - DDR3-1600 ram in tests is the current sweet spot giving some extra fps over 1333.

Anything faster not really useful at this time.

I've only HDD and I've never experienced stutter in CoD, fore sure SSD will improve loading time but it can make a RAID with HDD and use the saved money for a better graphics card
