current specs:
i5 2500k (i bought this about 5-6 years ago)
6850
8gb memory
crucial 64gb (bought it when it was new technology this cost like 100-120 i believe at the time)
1tb samsung hdd

anyway, i want to upgrade to a new SSD need it to have atleast 120gb as this 64gb ssd was stupidly very little space

looking to keep it under $120
i liked the performance of my crucial 64gb still, i just need more space
my windows 7 pc is running slow
i5-2500k is running 80% cpu usage on average
google chrome taking up like 3GB of my memory

i want to do a fresh restore but would like to have a new SSD with it.

i have the hyper 212+ cooler
can i add another 8gb of memory inthere? i forgot if the hyper212 blocks a slot or not in the memory

Found a 600gb one for $120, it's even got Optimized performance for everyday computing needs, on top of being Intel which is way better than AMD so why wouldn't you pick it? https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA5AD5P19756

Gotta wonder why it needed refurbished in the 1st place.


/e Also, note the speed...


Performance

Max Sequential Read
Up to 270 MBps

Max Sequential Write
Up to 220 MBps

sequential speed is the worst metric you could use to measure ssd performance unless you do a lot of large file transfers
