My SSD Write Rate!?

Two months ago I built my own gaming PC, complete with a 120GB Samsung 840 SSD. Recently I looked on Samsung Magician, at my total writes in those 2 months, 3.71TB to date. I installed a program called SSD Ready to monitor my SSD while in use. While playing Battlefield 4 on Google Chrome my SSD wrote 52GB of data in 2 hours. I was previously having days where my SSD would write in excess of 500GB of data in a day. So I stopped using Google Chrome and changed to firefox. I moved my browser cache from my disk drive to my RAM, and my SSD is OS Optimized for maximum reliability. Also, Battlefield 4 is installed on a separate 2TB HDD. However, today while playing Battlefield, my SSD wrote 1.5GB in under 5 minutes. It had been fine for the past few days, averaging 8GB a day, but I don't know what happened. Any and all help is appreciated, if this keeps up my SSD will die very shortly. Thank you in advance.
