    lol Samsung 830 128GB for $90... 64GB for $100. Gotta love the recent price drops in SSDs. Sucks for those of us who bought an SSD earlier this year though. My 520 was $180 at the beginning of summer, and just 4 months later I can get a similarly performing drive for half the price.

    yah not sure if i should go with the 128g 830 for $90 or wait and grab the 128gb 840 pro for $150

    im upgrading from a G.skill pheonix pro 120g

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231378

    surprisingly it has given me no issues at all (i think its gotta be at least 2yrs old) considering its a Sandforce SF-1200


    the samsung 830 128g will be a nice upgrade anyways and probably cant justify the extra $60 for the 840 pro

    lol i guess i answered my own question haha
