The Samsung PRO series would be the best performance you can buy for a laptop, as long as you use the Samsung magician software provided, the rapid mode in the software just knocks the socks off any ssd currently for a laptop, but the rapid mode can only work on 1 SSD in the computer, you cant have it work on two at the same time. I've had transfer rates around 850MB per second.

Thanks for the tip on gt70 search! Just ordered mine, Will update once installed

I wasn't aware of this cooler boost 2 until finding this thread, any tips where to purchase one? I've been searching but only found the original heatsink format. I need something like this before upgrading the cpu!

I'm unsure which bios to be downloading. This GT780R-012US has MS-1761, but the only available bios I was able to find at the time was the gt780 bios. it worked obviously but the MSI bios has less features than the previous bios I had. Should I download the whiteboard ms-1761, or stick with gt780 unlocked bios? Any help would be appreciated!

Gaming laptop MSI GT780R-012US CPU: Intel I7-2630qm 2.0Ghz - 2.9Ghz - upgrading to 2960xm and clocking it past 4Ghz GPU: GTX 770m clevo Ram: 16GB DDR3 Storage: Samsung SSD 840 Pro series X 2 3 years later, still gaming at ultra high settings. Found out I can overclock the monitor to 110 refresh rate, going to engage NVidia 3dvision in the future.
