Faster how?

Haven't tried it yet, whole point of a new SSD TO try it on =P
Also I hear people get better benches from win 8 because it uses less resources overall for the entire computer.

Faster Boot-up times & app load times.My lappy with even an inferior Kingston V100 128GB Boots into Windows 8 in approximate 10 secs.And the OS itself feels a lot faster.

Yes that is correct.I get better benchmark scores in Win 8 than 7.

You can try it guys.If you don't like it then you can always go back to Win 7 but the new OS is good.

I have 8 on my SSD now. Boots slower than 7 actually.
I haven't been able to compare benches yet but they should be rather similar actually. My last batch of benches actually marked 8 as slightly slower than 7 by about 1-2FPS so like I said similar.

probably clicked the wrong download link? I constantly check my system, nothing got infected, and no spyware or malware to be found.

Peti that could be true cause i remember going to the link at first and it saying download not found, but i do believe it had something to do with not having a account with them.

Well this is what i get from the link,

Unauthorized access to downloads!

You have to click downloads then you can click the download link. Just a bad hotlink.

**blackplague** · 01-01-2013, 02:52 AM

Well you don't need an account with them to download the benchie.I did not have earlier.But after trying several times to get the download started i found this way to get the thing done.PP , no the Hotlink is not bad but they have disabled direct clicking on the download link.

Just try this :-

1) Do not left Click on the download link.Instead right click & copy the link.

2) Then open a new tab & paste the download link & press enter.You will get the download started.

Weird is not it ?

I will try to make a video so that you can see how fast my lappy boots into Win 8 with an SSD.

Doesn't work as it comes up with a 404. You just have to click the link, click downloads, then click the download link on that page. No big. I never register for those kinds of things and registration isn't required.

Windows 8 Metro interface had been designed thinking Touch screens in mind.I don't have a Touch screen.So, i have replaced the Metro interface with the Start ORB like we used to see in other Windows versions.

Yes it is pretty damn good.Just try once.I don't think you will be regretting.
