If you really want to save a few $, go with the Crucial M500 or the newer MX100.
Those are the most recommended Budget SSDs in German tech forums and nobody I know of had any problems with it so far.
Looks like they're also very cheap in Canada/US, so that would be my choice even over a Samsung EVO.


MX100's are great, m500's not so much.

Got a few m500's laying around due to getting such a nice bulk deal.

I'll vouch for the Crucial M500 240gb. It's great and I paid $99 for it.

Also, if anyone else can link anything better that'd be great!

I may be able to up it to 125 (maybe 150!) if it's that big of a difference.


E: Also does it add more stress on my PSU?  I think I am just about at my max wattage.  Have a 600W PSU bronze modular with a R9 280 in it.  8 core processor 8320 and 8 GB RAM


Heh. The exact model I linked previously.

Can this work in my build? Not sure how intel does things, always when I see intel it's only compatible with it's own setup.

MX100 and 840 EVO are slightly better.
