This isn't [strictly] bullshit, ssds have a finite life and you don't need the fast access times for stuff like movies, combined with the cost/size ratio (especially before the last few months) of ssds means you should only use it for really important stuff.Nexx wrote:The stock fan and heatsink will be fine.

Â K series CPUs are overclockable so if you are planning to do so you will need a better fan (and you'll also need a overclocking compatible motherboard).This is bullshit.I don't know if this is true or not.
