I found an amazing program made for PC gaming, and figured you guys might be interested in it as well.
While I was browsing Reddit I stumbled across a program called Dimmdrive, it is a RAM drive that initially promised to give read and write speeds (on an HDD mind you) near 6GB/second.
I always wanted an SSD but could never afford one, so I decided to give this program a try.
My read and write speeds (respectively) went from 144.7 MB/s and 115.5 MB/s to 5327 MB/s and 9673 MB/s.
I was shocked that it worked so well, it cut my loading times by more than half for Skyrim (I have a good 30 mods installed), and on top of it all it already has steam integration built in!
It seems like not many people have heard of it yet, so I figured I should enlighten some of you who are also tight on cash (or just don't want to go through the trouble of buying an SSD)

asp wrote reddit and free hmm sound like a virus waiting to happen.I never said it was free, it is on sale for $30 right now.
But regardless of what you have to say, if you don't want to bother even looking into it fine, that is up to you. But please don't make accusations that are entirely false, especially when you clearly haven't even bothered to google it.
