Good Morning,
At this point, I would say about 6 weeks ago. I used an Asus Rampage II Extreme MB that a friend bought and decided not to use. So he gave me a very good deal on it. I initially planned to OC the system, and my understanding was that it was a good MB for that. I decided against the OC at the last minute as at 3.06 Ghz, I felt the cpu was fast enough for my needs and I always seem to have heat issues with my builds. So far that hasn't been the case with this one...thankfully. I had asked about the SSDs as I thought possibly you were going for a RAID 1 with them, which as I understand it isn't a good idea, even with TRIM. But I have no experience as of yet with them so I am not 100% positive either.

Hello Gary, Thanks for your reply, how long ago did you build this? What motherboard did you use and why? I want to use 2 SSD's and use one for the OS and the page/swap file and the other for the apps/games.
