Everyone says they're only good for initial load times but I think it might help for Clod? Thanks, Jay

I heard that the Crucial M4 range has received a recent firmware update that now see them challenging the Vertex for performance while coming in considerably cheaper.

You may want to check out some reviews.

Agreed. I love mine! So friggin' fast it's insane. I'm loving the 5 second boot times. Only paid $109USD at Newegg.

Also why go with a 128Gb over a 64Gb? Mine is plenty big enough. I just run my OS and Cliffs of Dover on it and have a SATA3 1Tb dump drive for all of everything else (movies, music, older games etc..). I still have more than enough room for Skyrim when it comes out. If you've got the money go for it I guess... I just can't justify paying twice as much or more for something I don't need. I put the extra $ towards a better videocard.
