wow, that price is a steal for that processor!

I'm using a program called Primo Ramdisk, it loads and saves on startup and works like a normal thumb drive. I mainly got the 32gb of ram so if I played a modern MMO like EQN or Pantheon I could drop it into like a 20gb partition. Right now I have it sized at 8 gigs and put League in it (since its the only game Im currently playing), but that's a game you have to wait for everyone else to load anyway. It's just funny to finish loading while other people are still at 0%. I definitely noticed a sizeable speedup between ramdisk and ssd.

I was using Windows 7 but just installed Windows 8.1 now. I'm using some program called StartIsBack+ that gives a normal Windows experience (no metro start screen). I can still get to the metro screen with ctrl+windows key if I needed to. Really I haven't noticed any difference at all with Windows 8 once getting rid of the gimmick start screen, and I mean that in a bad way. Like 5 years and 0 improvements or cool features besides touchscreen stuff virtually no1 on a desktop uses cmon Microsoft.
