What size/make SSD are you guys using? I rebuilt my system over the summer using an SSD system drive but also installed a 1TB data drive as I figured I'd burn through a 250gig SSD drive pretty quick so basically Steam and all related games are installed on the data drive.

Wow...just took a boo at ME, SSD are finally getting to decent sizes. Looks like I'll be upgrading again soon.

I'd love a bigger display too. I'd love to run a triple screen display but no room on my current desk for it.

I have 1 500GB, 2x 250 GB and 2x 128 GB SSDs. I have run out of SATA ports (unless I unhook my BR drive...) so I'm probably going to sell off some of my smaller drives soon however.

Triple monitor for Fallout 4 is bad, really no support. I'm sure the mod community will iron it all out, but it's a little late when your are finished the game. Maybe in 6 months I'll play a new style and hopefully they will have a good fix.

For SSD I use Intel SSD 520 for system and Crucial MX200 for my games directory. I made the mistake of 120GB for the system drive, seems to be full most of the time. Otherwise no issues, load time with SSD is no more than 10 seconds for me.

Just found out what happens when you hit a fusion core in VATS. That was pretty neat.

I now have three sets of power armour, including a T-51...

Fort Strong was very good to me.

i found an entire t-60 power armor in an abandoned building but the building is not anywhere on the map pretty lucky to find ot i have upgraded it to t-60 d armor with the paint jobs adding extra strength to the suit... so I can forage more. Also has anyone found that abandoned ufo with what looks like green blood around it is there an alien around there or is it just something cool to see?

There is an X-01 Power Armor Suit hidden somewhere. I highly suggest grabbing it as soon as you can.

Spoiler!

Recently I came across a raider outpost just south of Abernathy Farm (sp?). It had a guy in there rocking the T51 armour. Managed to kill him but his suit was missing a helmet and left arm, anyone know where I can find missing pieces? I've slapped on some power raider armour for a quick replacement but it looks like s**t, I desire symmetry.

What is the order of power armor and how good they are? I have a bunch of the suits (I never use them, they just stand like statues) but I don't know whether T-45,T51,T60 is the best.

I saw the X01 somewhere but assumed since it had lower number that it was worse so I left it.

15 Exoskeletons?? Wow....

I've killed a number of people that are wearing only exoskeletons, can you loot those somehow? I've only ever lifted power armour from bodies.

So I finally ran into a legendary deathclaw in the glowing sea, and expected to get crushed, but I had no problem at all.
My trusty .308 combat rifle ripped him up.

Game was getting too easy, even on very hard. Decided to restart and play through as full melee.

Yeah I didn't change the difficulty and the game was easy. I'll take a break and come back maybe on Christmas break and do a full on snipe & sneak setup.
