enigma# Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Personal note: The build looks good but I would not burn my money on a SATA SSD lol. Your mobo listed as M2 compatibility for PCI-E. That's up to you though if you want to spend a bit more money for more raw throughput. Essentially for double more space for about 30-40 more dollars and more space as an example in this case:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104542 you could benefit from it. Just to put some raw numbers in perspective M2 PCi-E versus SATA3 1.5 GBps Read / 600 MBps The Samsung is limited by SATA3 550 MBps / 430 MBps Just something to keep in mind.
