I was wondering what SSD I should go with for my new rig? I'm caught between maybe saving some money, getting an Adata SP550 240gb, get some legendary reliability and go with an Intel 535 250gb, or go with a Samsung 850 Evo 256gb. Which one do you think I should pick?

Samsung 850 Evo 256gb  IMO, Extremly reliable and they are well built!

Samsung also has legendary reliability and last a really long time. The Intel 535 is an older SSD as well. 

That :3

Samsung has been a king for a long time. Intel with their higher price tag completely putt themselves out of the market IMO. I was considering Intel SSD at the time of building my PC (2 years ago).

And a couple of the Intel SSD's are pretty crappy.  Everything in the 600p series for example.  The Samsung 810 and 820 ones were pretty terrible too, but they're much older.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

The Crucial MX300. While Samsung is probably the best SSD, the Crucial is plenty good and you get an extra 25GB.
