I'd give it an 8/10. It would be better with a 2500k or a 2600k. Also not a great SSD.

Umm... the MoBo does not support intel CPU's. ALso the SSD isnt bad for the price and im just using it to boot.

Durr it does not support intel. I mean, you should have made an intel build other than an AMD. The SSD is not a good brand. I also have a SSD as well just to boot, with some programs aswell.

It's actually a fantastic grab at its price. If it was some OCZ Petrol junk, then yes, I'd agree. I'd rate it a 7/10 mainly due to a CPU that gets squashed by a 2500k/2600k which also have better upgrade paths and easier OC options.

Just for the record, that mushkin SSD is not bad at all. It's actually really fast.



Just because you don't know the brand, doesn't mean that is bad.
