Intel SSDs

I can't wait for the Intel SSD's. If they are going to be as fast as they say they are, they might actually be worth buying. And I'm sure Intel has the manufacturing capability to mass-produce them pretty easily.

Plus they look a lot snazzier than any other SSD I've seen.

Price drops and E5200

Intel supposedly doing Price drops on the 20th. - We can assume the green team will follow once they know what Intel's price drops are going to be.

Also there is an Intel E5200 that supposedly will OC to 4Ghz and cost around $100.00

280 vs 4850

The more tests I see with these cards, the more I'm amazed by ATIs offering. That two 4850s are able to, in some tests anyway, come out on top of 280 SLI are pretty sweet.

But why doesn't t-break test the 4850s in Quakewars??
