SSD or Power Supply

[MoonlightSylv]

I have $60 and I want to get either a new PSU for some upgrade flexibility or an SSD because I have hard drives. So what should I get?

[Fungal]

imo get a boot ssd for windows and maybe some games with long loading times like bf4

If you want to upgrade that GPU past (or possibly even to, if OCing) a GTX 960 or R9 380, then you'll need to upgrade the PSU eventually, but I would recommend an SSD.

ok do I know my suggestion was flawed on your last topic, but SSD all the way on this one.

 

No reason to get a PSU if the one you have is already working. 

 

SSD would provide an excellent speed boost. So much so you may be happy with the performance for quite a while and not need to upgrade (negating the need for a PSU)

 

You'll get no performance benefit from a PSU, you will from an SSD..

 

No brainer really.

That psu does not have a very good rep, but since your system is not very power hungry, it should be ok. with $60 you should be able to get a decent 120gb ssd, and a fresh install of windows on that baby will speed the whole OS up...

The PSU is in the range of "meh" (not excellent, but not a ticking time bomb either). Since your components are low powered, that PSU should be fine for a long whiled unless you wanted a new GPU as well.

 

I recommend the SSD upgrade.

For your system your PSU is fine so get the SSD you want man.

Why is this even a question? This is like buying gas when you don't even own a car.
