Fusion IO announces monster SSD for gamers

Fusion IO, which has made a name for itself with high-performance SSDs for the enterprise segment, preps its first consumer SSD – which promises to be more than twice as fast as the fastest SSDs on the market today. Prosumers, enthusiasts and gamers will be able to benefit from the massive bandwidth of the card, Fusion IO says. Source: TG Daily...

So after we drop $400-1000 on video card(s), and another grand on Quad Core Extreme Edition CPUs, they want us to drop a grand on an 80gb SSD so that my CoD maps can load a little faster? Or so that level changes in single player games will take 15sec instead of 45sec or a minute?

Um, nice, but no thanks.
