Hello guys, i need some feedback on my new build.
I am getting those parts:
Board: ASRock Z68 Extreme 4 Gen3
CPU: Core i5 2500k
RAM: GSkill Ripjaws 2133Mhz CL11 (maybe CL10 with some tweaking)
Storage: 120GB Agility 3 SDD + 2TB Seagate Barracuda Green

I have seen some good feedback from Vortez on the mobo.

But... some friends say the Agility 3 had some issues awhile ago and i remember reading something about the new SF controller problems. Should i get this drive? :confused:

Thanks in advance :toast:
