Which SSD?

Currently looking at these SSDs:

Samsung 850 Evo 250GB

OCZ Arc 100 240GB

Adata SP900 256GB

Crucial MX200 256GB
Crucial BX100 256GB
Patriot Blaze 240GB
PNY XLR8 240GB

Wondering what makes this SSD better than the other SSDs. 

Or if there's any other good 240/250/256GB SSDs that are around 70-120 USD range.

Need a upgrade from my Intel X-25M 160GB SSD anyway...

Can't really live with these speeds....

Samsung does have Rapid Mode, which caches contents of the SSD into RAM.

Rapid mode takes a lot of RAM space anyway..:/

@Unlikelyjoker has like 9.46GB out of 16GB RAM usable because of Rapid mode using all the RAM.

Sometimes you have to make sacrifices if you want speed.

850 EVO 250gb all the way. $100, amazing consumer performance

 

Really have no idea how people call intel 750s "consumer" SSDs. They're minimum 400gb and $400. Consumers just want something cheap and fast to put their OS and some programs on... Just ranting about Linus' last video I guess

So true.

Nvidia is to Dr Dre Beets as AMD is to KFC.

One makes you broke, the other you can get more of and have a midnight snack from the fridge when hungry again. Once you go Nvidia, you go broked, turn into an Elitist, or get the incorrect amount of VRAM.

 I was only 9 years old. I loved Fifflaren so much, I had all the NiP merchandise and matches pirated. I prayed to Fifflaren every night before bed. Thanking him for the life I have been given. Fifflaren is love I say. Fifflaren is life. My dad hears and calls me a fuckhead. I knew he was just jelly of my passion for Fifflaren. I called him a Sw@yer. He hits me and sends me to go to sleep. I'm crying now, and my face hurts. I lay in bed and it's really cold. A warmth is moving towards me. I feel someone touching me. I feel someone touching me. It's Fifflaren. I am so happy. He whispers in my ear; "this is my pyjama". He grabs me with his powerful Swedish hands and puts me on my hands and knees. I'm ready. I spread my ass cheeks for Fifflaren. He penetrates my butt-hole. It hurts so much but I do it for Fifflaren. I can feel my butt tearing as my eyes start to water. I push against his force. I want to please Fifflaren. He roars a viking roar as he fills my butt with his love. My dad walks in. Fifflaren looks straight into his eyes and says; "He is a ninja now". Fifflaren is love, Fifflaren is life
