Which SSD drive would you choose from these to use in our gaming pc, to put Windows 7 home premium 64bit on. ---
OCZ Vertex Series 60GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive
Corsair Extreme X64 64GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive
Kingston SSDNow V+ Series 64GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive

The Kingston is a bit cheaper, but hard to get hold of at the moment, i really dont mind paying a bit extra if you think the OCZ or CORSAIR is better.

You'll want to AT LEAST make sure it's Indilinx controlled.

SandForce controllers are the new "big thing" so Indilinx drives will be going down in price.

You will want to do some research. Make sure you're getting an Indilinx controller or the new SandForce.

OR INTEL! According to this, Sandforce is making Intel nervous
