Can i know your hd raid benchmark, my pc spec at my signature. cant remember the benchmark.....and i used HD Tach....but i do remember it was quite low. but the low benchmark is a common issue with 680i chipset mobos. but in terms of loading times (windows games etc etc) it was significantly faster than single hdd. |
