My budget will allow for either of these 4 SSDs but I don't know which one to get, please help. I am in Australia if it helps.

I'd say Crucial or Samsung. Maybe even consider 850 EVOs.

Out of those I'd go with the BX200. Mainly because I don't trust Kingston after the V300 fiasco and the 750 EVO is kinda old.

its a slower cheaper version of the 850

Could've called it the 830 or something...

Welp this is now my SSD of choice for new builds besides the BX200 and 850 EVO.

So I guess I am going with the Crucial.

I'd go with the 750 EVO for $5 more.

slow pc is aceptable as long as it does the job

Maybe in your opinion. Everyone disagrees with you, however, including me. An SSD saves valuable time where people could be working instead of waiting for their stuff to load.

If you think that "slow pc is acceptable as long as it does the job" why did you join this forum? It's all about custom PCs and speeding them up.

Benchmark Results: 3DMark Firestrike: 10,528 | SteamVR VR Ready (avg. quality 7.1) | VRMark 7,004 (VR Ready)

 

Other systems I've built:

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

If you're spending 853 dollars on a PC, why would you want it to boot slowly? For a PC that expensive it would be downright stupid not to include an SSD.
