Upgrading for 100$ CDN

Mjvdk

Unsure if this is in the correct section or not, please inform me if it is.  I currently would like to dedicate another 100-120$ CDN to my pc with current specs below

 

i5 4460s

gtx 960 strix

60 gb intel 520 series ssd

hyper 212 evo

nzxt s340 white

antec 650W power supply

1tb seagate hdd

 

What does the community suggest I upgrade on my build? This can include fans/leds as I currently have the 2 stock fans in the top and back for exhaust with one 120mm fan in the front for intake.

Is there anything that you aren't satisfied with. Your PC seems to have good components.

 

From the top of my head, I would say get another bigger ssd since they have been getting cheaper.

Get another, bigger SSD.

There was a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO for like $100 at BestBuy, not sure if that's still a thing.

 

Edit: That SSD is still a thing, but today's the last day.

Second edit because I'm inept: 850 EVO for $90 at Canada Computers.

^ I think this is the right approach if you think about upgrading.

You should always ask yourself if you actually need an upgrade.

If you're satisfied with the performance, then think about "upgrading" the aesthetics of your build with sleeved cables or LEDs for example.

Or how about you do some modding? Can be a lot of fun.
