No bottleneck, but IMO you would be better waiting for Skylake

DONT GET THE SAMSUNG SSD.

Be sure to explain why, and then offer another suggestion to OP. You'll confuse him otherwise, and the goal is to help lol.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

Not really a bottleneck, but I would get a 4790k and a 980 instead.

That is, if you plan on gaming a lot.

the 840 evo had slow down problems where if you leave data on it for a long time the read speed will go down to like 10MB/s but i havent really seen the 850 evo have that problem but TLC nand is also much less durable

TLC Nand

Hmm... I've heard that the Samsung 850 EVO was very durable, great speed, and it had a great price.

What do you suggest instead? (250 gb+, $170 (CAD) <
