Ssd

I'm running CoD on an ssd, and in combination with the rest of my system I have no performance issues at all except the memory leak=ctd.
Game aent even stutter with original textures.

Same here. I have some slight micro-stuttering at very low altitude but other than that the game is very smooth. They just need to get the memory leak fixed and i'll be happy as a clam... well performance wise at least.

I wouldn't touch OCZ with a barge pole! I had to send mine back. If I were you I'd get an intel

what about a corsair force gt 120 gb 555 read 515 write?

I never used mechanical drives that spin. I have only used SSD for O/S and CoD and I rarely have shutters.

I've got an OCZ Vertex 3 with my sims on it.

CloD is stutter free.

My only performance problem with CloD is graphics card based. My GTX580 is not powerful enough to render CloD at high FPS on my monitor 30"

It's the only software thats bought my system to it's knees

It needs next years graphics card or some code improvement.

Really?
My 580 runs CoD at 55fps+ average on my 25 inch monitor.
I can't imagine the extra 5 inches would be that big of a deal?

I have a Vertex 3 and I agree, junk....nothing but headaches.
You can't go wrong with Intel and I really like the Crucial M4.

I have the Crucial 300 128Mb (a year old now). I have Win7 64 bit Home Premium and all my Flight Sims on it:- CoD, FSX, X-Plane and IL-2 and have around 17Gb left. Actually I'll probablt remove X-Plane as I hardly use it.

Fast to boot and perhaps quicker to pull data for CoD - how would I know?

Very happy except for my ASUS Sabertooth mobo which is great but the Marvell 98xx controller on it won't detect the SSD on cold boot and I have to Reset each time - something I am chasing down with ASUS. I'm sure that's not the fault of the SSD and other ASUS mobos have different controllers. See what you can find out about your mobo controller.

Be sure your mobo has a SATA III (6Gb/s) port for the SSD or you are wasting your time and check the R/W times, some of the older ones are no faster than a good HDD but the figures you are quoting look good.

I have two Crucial m4's, 128gb for OS and 256gb for games. I love them. I was a bit worried about stuters and other problems when I was shopping for SSD in the spring. Was looking really hard at vertex3 drives, but after reading a ton of reviews I decided to go with the slightly slower Crucial M4 for the sake of stability and reliability.
I'm really happy with the purchase. I think going from a spinning drive to ssd was the bigest performance boost fore my machine.

I did a backup of the first beta for this patch and whenever I want to switch from the official patch to the beta, I just copy and paste the whole game folder in seconds.

I love it.
