I figured BF3 would be good on the SSD but i have not seen much improvement from the Alpha on HDD to the Beta on SSD. Any thoughts?
No, you can't sell stuff in here. Besides, everything you say isn't really true. You have a defective SSD.

My SSD checks out passing all tests from Seatools, Crucial, HDParm, Parted Magic, ChkDsk, SFC....Tell me how my SSD is bad? no Im not trying to sell on this forum. I'm asking if those prices are fair before posting on the buy/sale/trade forum. If i wanted to sell on this page I would have said PM me or first come first serve.

BSOD's? Without it, no BSOD's? Sounds like a bad SSD to me. Or you have problems installing your chipset/storage drivers. By the way you worded your post, it sure in the heck seemed like you were trying to sell it. I certainly wouldn't want to buy a bad SSD. Now, get back on topic, this thread has nothing to do with selling your SSD, getting an apparaisal on your SSD, your BSOD's and/or why you are having problems with your SSD.

ok.ok.ok.. as my closing statement, I personally do not think it is a problem with SSD as much as it is MS Windows having a problem with my drive layout. I'm probably just paranoid. Thank you for your advice. end of topic. Back to You Bob.

SSD's are just like memory, can have bad memory modules on it, and will make the rig BSOD, only problem is you cannot adjust timings and volts on those bitches

or it could be related to chipset drivers and windows power settings

aka theres a lot of chipset issues and power managment issues within windows when it comes to SSDs

now as for your issues rubber ducky keep them to yourself. i dont need you jinxing my ssd before it arrives and i can install BF3 on it.

Always with the negative waves man. Always the negative waves.

For anyone who hasn't been in battle (BC2 and BF3) with Crazyeyes and me.....here is a rare glimpse of what its like. I picture Erocker as Telly Savalas in this movie.

You know what? That doesn't sound very far fetched.

Duly noted. Although, i think your fussing about BF3 performance jinxed my SSD.

Yes I know I know it's Battlefield 3 but I can't decide whether to jump into single player right away for further practice with a wider variety of weapons and vehicles (and also cause I'm definitely curious about it) or start with multiplayer and thus not be so far behind the general population in rank and unlocks.

I'm doing the single and co-op first. Just to get it out of the way. Don't care what the rest of the world has for unlocks. Ill be there soon enough.....

Same here. After the BF3 beta ending with all that 32v32 player action, i fired up BC2 and i just couldn't get into it anymore it feels like it has less of everything, it started feeling like a chore to me for some reason.

Not to say BC2 is bad, i was all over that game before but after experiencing what i saw as a superior experience, it's tough finding fun in the old and im desperately wanting to embrace the new cause ive seen how awesome and fun it is.

For me it was like getting a lobster dinner for week and then having it snatched from under you only to go back to eating a bowl of peanuts.

I hate to say it fella's...

but i think we actually might need to leave the basement, attempt to talk to some girls and possibly get laid until the game gets released.

I cant look at BC2 the same way after the BF3 beta...I wants it!! my preciousses!!!
