I have a $300 budget for SSD, i am going to go to a computer shop to buy my card and also would like to purchase a SSD.

What SSD do you think is faster?

I was planning on getting the 850 PRO 256 GB for $213 or the samsung 840 500gb evo for $265.

840 gives you twice the size in case you don't have another hdd drive for storage, the 850 pro is one of the fastest ssd-s available.

the 840 would probly allow you to use it as a single drive on your whole pc (with a hdd drive for just backups and occasional cleanup), 850 at 250gb is a system drive only (+maybe a few games) and you'll need to store other large files on the hdd.

the pricing on the evo isn't too great either (i would expect it at about the same price as the 850) so i for one would go for the 850 - but that's just me, i'm used to working with a normal sized system drive and store stuff on a secondary
