Not sure which hard drive is installed currently, its old and outdated, looking for a new hard drive to boost loading speeds on my games. Trying to keep under $200 but if necessary can go higher.

Processor AMD Phenom(tm) II X4 945 Processor
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970
Memory 8.2 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit

You can go to disk management then properties to look up the model of your current hard drive. Then you can keep it and get a 240gb SSD around $100-120 or a 500gb around $200 and use that for your more used applications and as your boot drive.
Here's a list of SSDs on PCPartPicker: http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/internal-hard-drive/#t=0&sort=a10

You could also get the Kingston SSDNow 240gb, and save for a better processor/motherboard/any other upgrades....
