The X58 will be left alone for the interim.....from what I'm hearing the SATAIII should be fine now on the Gigabyte X79s.....like an F1 .... this X79 build will be stripped , all fat trimmed to the bone for absolute performance.......Just one fast SSD most probably
Once it's ceiling is set.....I'll start to kit it out and see how it likes lots of toys connected.....yes even the 640.....All in good time.
I must add I was pleasantly surprised with the prices at day one......will probably drop in the run up to Xmas as well!
