Samsung 840 EVO likely.

However, an SSD rarely benefits video games aside from decreasing LOAD times for the initial game and levels.

Also, 120GB isn't very much space if you were to put on several games. I recommend putting Windows and programs on the SSD, and Steam/Games on a hard drive.

If you get the Samsung, install Samsung Magician to overprovision, update firmware, benchmark etc.
