Current build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/RsqysY
Im planning to add:
RAM: http://tinyurl.com/h5oybcn
SSD: http://tinyurl.com/zxnq7vk


  • Can some one tell me would this be compatible with my current build?
    Also since i will be upgrading to 960GB SSD i was wondering is there anyway i can run dual SSD. Using my current Kingston for Window 7 or 10 OS. while Adata for storage.
    If it possible please instruct me how i can get this done.
    Please recommend me if there is any other parts i should also look into upgrading.
Thank you very much

Memory should work fine.
You can add the 2nd SSD just like you would add a regular hard drive, you just need to plug it in and it should work fine.
You don't stand to win much (if anything at all) by using an SSD for data storage though. I would suggest spending the money elsewhere.
My money would go into upgrading the Graphics Card.

Technically the ADATA SSD will be slightly faster than the V300. Even faster if your V300 is a bait-and-switch model. So I would just swap it out and clone your files over.

But if you'd like to save some money to upgrade your graphics card I would just get a 1tb HDD for your data, which is roughly $50.

An R9 390 or GTX 970 would work.
