Trying to upgrade my gaming computer and need a little help.

last time i checked, the OCZ Vertex 4 was best on market still... or at least high up there. speeds are better on the 128GB and up drives so I'd go with that.
Also, if you really want to get into the fun of building PC's and the fun of it, get a nice case you can keep cooled right and play with Overclocking, that's half the fun man!!! :D

OCZ isn't best on the market for ANYTHING. OCZ is junk. Crucial or intel make some of the best SSD's, not OCZ. Bad, unreliable PSU's and nasty record with SSD's as well.
And ya, totally agree with the above. Get a aftermarket cooler, and overclock that 2500k. It's literally meant for overclocking( K)

OCZ Vertex 4 has nothing be raving reviews when I researched it a month or so ago. I wouldn't touch their PSU's though agreed. I'll check again on updated benchmark and reviews :)
I know their Agility line was pretty craptastic...

I've had my current crucial for just over 3 years now I think and it's starting to go bad, but it's been a solid horse for those 3 years. That's why I was looking about a month ago in the first place :P

wel it sounds like you just need more usb ports then use this from the site where u linked the motherboard

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...&Sku=S262-2744.

for a ssd i would recommend a 128 gig minimum but since the price for them are getting cheaper i would go for 256 gig.
Mainly go for the bigger one because then u can install a few games on them without constantly having to remove them.
Also there are a few guides on how to setup a ssd so it will work perfectly. (this is not hard to do but it will require some tweaking)
When u go look for a ssd crosair is a good way to go
The main thing u want to know is the speed since u want to use it for gaming u want a high read speed. For newer ssd the read speed is around 500mb

As for a video card for games you dont need 2 video cards thats for those who render or encode etc
and since u state that your fps is good there is no reason to get a new card.
