Save that budget for a bit and you can pick up a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO. They are $90 US on newegg. I have one and am very happy with it. 

 

If saving is impossible I found this real quick

For 80 dollars you could get two of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/291799630245?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

You would then have 320 gb.

i5 6600k and GTX 1070 but I play 1600-900. 1440p BABY!

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

It also has some of the worst sustained read and write speeds on the market.

Would be horrible if the cheapest one wasnt the slowest one ;) but in all honesty for a boot SSD the speed isnt as important as the randoms. (The "seek times" on spinning rust)
