The current darling is the Samsung 840 EVO. A 128GB should be under your price point.
Currently, $100 at Amazon (US)

Crucial CT240M500SSD1 is one of the best SSD available for your money. But there are plenty of many other choices. You can get a samsung 840 Evo ssd which is also good.

Hey,

I would recommend a Samsung 840 evo for several reasons. First of all they are really fast SSDs, however speed isn't the only thing you should consider. They also have amazing build quality and reliability (judging from previous models) , as Samsung makes all of the components from the NAND flash to the controller in house. Other brands like Crucial, and Intel also make great, reliable units. However avoid OCZ as some of their SSDs have been failing in the past.

Hope this helps!

Good point about OCZ! I have two of their Vertex 2 drives that I cannot use in my current system because they are incompatible with Intel Z87 chipset.
