    Hi,

    You guys have all been really helpful, so I was hoping you could help me with another question:

    Is Intel Robson Turbo Memory a worthwhile investment? Does it help with gaming at all?

    Thanks

    Well if you get the 4GB version, and your game install is less than 3.5GB, pin it to your User Pinning interface, then it will load your game a lot faster than it would off the HDD. Once the game is loaded tho, no difference.

    Please specify the meaning of "a lot faster". Percentage would be nice.

    Oh I can't give you a percentage. Load times will be decreased. Thats all I can say.
