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...

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