Need alittle help.

Depends on if you plan on storing any pictures/music on the drive and how much. Basically you only want to put the OS and a few of your most used programs(depending on how big they are) on the SSD.
 
as long as you dont require alot of storage, that drive will be fine, be aware that sometimes restore points may start eating up space, and you will want to keep an eye on that, i leave system restore on just incase of 'oh sh1t' moments.

Yeah, that's what I've been told too. I'm most likely just going to go with a HDD, so I won't have to worry about storage shortages and the like. I also know why you don't want to fill up a SSD as well.

Thanks johnb!

Yeah, I'm probably going to be using a bit of space, for steam and iTunes.
 
if you can afford a small ssd + a hdd, could get the best of both worlds...OCZ offers a cache drive now too, which makes it chipset independent (you dont need a z68 chipset to have SSD caching)

The mobo I have has the Z68 chipset so it wouldn't be a problem anyway. And I'm thinking of going with a GTX570 superclocked to try and save some cash to buy a small SSD.
