    Re: News - Corsair smashes PC Mark Vantage world record

    Quite apart from the real world people not using LN2, no-one is ever going to use 11 in Raid 0. People barely accept having 3 in Raid 0

    But it's a benchmark, and nice score. How about using 11 ACards? Does that scare you now, Crucial?

    Intel G2 MLC's still better performing outside made up situations like these: anandtech.com/storage/showdoc.aspx?i=3631, that's why I bought one

    Anyone want to give me a blank cheque so I can make a machine to beat Corsair's half hearted effort!!!

    Re: News - Corsair smashes PC Mark Vantage world record

    11 x F200s and LN2 is half-hearted?!

    Extra graphics cards wouldn't have helped PC Mark, so what else would you have added?

    I'd like to see you try with an ATi Rage Pro then. Betchya there is a score difference.

    Re: News - Corsair smashes PC Mark Vantage world record

    I suppose my point was that going triple-SLI or CrossFire X wouldn't have helped matters in PCM, so there was only the single graphcis card for that reason.

    What's wrong with the Rage Pro? I had one of them!

    SandForce based SSD murders Intel in 4k Random write, especially aligned, though it is a bit slower in random read. But if that's important, then Micron MLC is faster yet.

    Umm... that's redonculous! Though I'm suprised they didn't try to overclock with a H50. Would have exploded if they did but it would sure show faith in their own products!
