My experience with Windows 8.1 on my Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P and FX 8350

It's snappy, but updating Windows is super slow, like a 386 and 486! Seems to be deadlocks in Windows Update code.

 

It's working well with a PNY Optima 120 GB SSD, which appears to have a Silicon Motion controller. 

 

It's doing well, despite a single 4 GB stick. (I lost fundamental stability with a 2x4GB RAM kit, had to return it)
