SSD prices are getting somewhat affordable. I think newegg has a pretty fast sata III 1TB SSD for $350

Sad thing is that people like us want more speed and won't be satisfied with that because of how damn fast those M.2 drives are

this is my first time hearing about M.2 drives.
i just read up on it a bit after seeing you post.

things change so fast now.

I saw a samsung pcie M.2 card that was about 3-4x faster than the best SATA III ssd drives out there

I know @Ciggavelli is watching it closely

my Samsung SSD is stupid fast and i didn't even run the fix on it to improve the speed (still gotta do it).
i can't imagine 3-4 times faster.

Had a lot of strange randomness with the 980ti since I got it a few weeks ago. It's so minimal/random I can't even really like contact EVGA about it.

I have a k70 with red switches and pbt keycaps. I love it, and definitely recommend a mechanical keyboard if you use it a lot

the only thing is the bottom row on the k70 is non-standard, so I couldn't replace all the keys

Is there a place where they sell custom builds?

what happens?

Most noticeable thing is when the computer goes in sleep mode. When I press and turn it back on I see like 2-3 dead pixels on my screen. They go away if I mouse over em but shyts weird as fk. Also been having some issues with flash player but I dunno if that's windows 10 or the ti.

I always wondered why there aint a business that would actually have you buy the parts and put that shyt together for you.(Obviously with a service fee). I know a lot of local computer spots do that but I'm talking on some Newegg online vendor type place.

I put together pretty much my entire PC but other folks might not wanna do that or can't. Seems like some bread that could be made

that all sounds like driver and/or win10 issues. I don't think there's anything wrong with your card
