    I'm glad you asked that. Technically, I don't know. But, just by browsing hardware forums on a regular basis I rarely see people
    bitching about Intel SSDs (or even Crucial for that matter), but someone is always bitching about their OCZ drive. Something
    else that really bothers me about OCZ is their forum. If you look at Intel's SSD forum and OCZ's SSD forum (after you get past
    OCZ's 15 fucking stickies) and compare them side-by-side on how many people are having issues with their drives every day. I
    think you'll notice that OCZ has a plethora of problems going on over at their forum while Intel's forum is nice and quiet.

    It can always be argued though that since OCZ boasts the biggest numbers, they have the most customers, and, in turn, have

    the most reported issues. Who knows?

    Anyway, get rid of that stupid GTX 590. The 590 is just two underclocked 580's jammed on the same card. They're
    underclocked because if they weren't the card would probably catch on fire. I own the 3GB GTX 580 and this thing can pump
    out some heat.

    I'll look more into the the Intel 510's a bit more. Do you use just 1 3GB GTX 580?
    I am trying to order everything from Newegg and the only 3GB GTX 580 I found was the one by ZOTAC
