don't listen to this guy. spend 90-100 on an 250 gb evo and save up again for a b stock 970.

SSD won't increase performance.. lol
2 minutes compared to 15 seconds in boot time.. but there's no increase in performance

Not in gaming, aside from load times. Which from what I seen it usually isn't a big deal.
I had a Samsung pro ssd, load times in BF3 multiplayer was a ton faster but still irrelevant when you have to wait for the match to start

This particular GPU comes at a really low stock/factory settings so get this one only if you are willing to overclock it to at least 950 mhz.

You can buy one with a higher stock clock but its kind of a waste of moneys since you could overclock for frizzle.

of course not in gaming, and the load time of everything becomes shorter.. it's a solid upgrade for the price.

SSD's are purely for convenience. They have zero impact on actual PC performance. They're nice, sure, but the faster boot isn't a necessary upgrade if you want to increase game performance. Sure they may sate your impatience if you have the attention span of a goldfish and are denser than lead, but they won't help you any in a video game. If the goal is the most performance for the money, SSD's don't make the list of things to upgrade.
