Question! Iam thinking about buying a SSD 256 GB crucial M4 or Samsung 830.

Is anyone here that can tell me if he got a significant performance boost by running WIn 7 and CLOD on an SSD? THX
No performance boost with SSD ! But it's damn fast to start the PC and Win7 is faster too! That's the only (good) reason to buy a SSD!

He may as well just partition his HDD and it will do the same thing.

No it wont. SSD have no need to spin up and no mechanical reading arm. They can have far lower seek times and faster read times than traditional HDDs.

Not that I have one, money is too tight at the moment but a popular PC gaming site (Pock Paper Shotgun) listed it as the number 1 upgrade for better PC use over GPU, CPU etc.

Plus if you fly FSX with a lot of scenery and aircraft addons, you'll find that load times are siginficantly improved (about 4x faster in my case) but as with CoD no performance boost
