I'm not getting your message, friend. Don't buy a good computer? SSD's are overrated? With as much tweaking as I have done, they are running pretty smooth for me...

Kinda weird to me, really. SSDs are neat tech, but they come with their own issues for anyone who's dealt with them more than drooling over the specs for one on NewEgg.

http://www.overstock.com/Electronics...&searchidx=414 Will this get me there? Mostly liking this as it's hard to find many of these close-outs and such that are expandable to 32Gigs. Or maybe: http://www.amazon.com/iBuyPower-GAME...productDetails or http://www.amazon.com/iBUYPOWER-GAME...6440175&sr=1-3 This is literally the only PC game I bother with at the moment so I really don't want to go crazy on spending. Any thoughts are appreciated.

It's become pretty clear this game is a crapshoot, apparently. I ve been playing SWTOR since launch on a system I built two years ago for ~$700 containing a Radeon 6950, i5 2500k, a damn Biostar motherboard and 8gb of 1600 RAM, and I have always played with max settings and have never had any technical issues aside from slow loads when I have too many browser tabs open or something. AND I've moved four times covering many thousands of miles and had a truly terrible ISP for a few months; it was still fine. And yet people come in here with Haswell chips and video cards two generations newer than mine and the game runs like crap. Not sure if anything we have to say will be of any help.

Any thoughts are appreciated. These guys are currently the top build shop imo, I have 2, I have friends with another 7 of their gaming rigs (both laptops and desktops) and I give them my highest recommendation - they are as good as the computers I've built myself, top shelf builds all along http://www.ibuypower.com/info/backtoschool.aspx

I have comment regarding anyone basing performance expectations solely on the brand their hardware wears. It is this: lol
