Which of these 3?

Hi guys. I am building a computer and I just wanted a second or third opinion on what SSD to get. I am planning on using the SSD as a boot drive and for a few games. These are the three I have picked:

If you know of any better ones for under $100 then let me know. Thanks for your time!

Those are not great choices.

Do not under any circumstances buy the corsair drive.

I would suggest a samsung 830, or intel 520 line drive. That's based on personal exp and reading these forums each day.

I would go with the Crucial drive if you were not looking outside of those 3.

Crucial is perfectly reputable. What's wrong with the Corsair, tomatthe?

I'd like to see 128gb, but if this is the budget, the Crucial's probably the way to go.

Ok so what about this one?

It's 120GB and only $25 more

I had no idea it was that cheap! Go for it.

I remember hearing something about sandforce controllers being bad. Is that still an issue? Cuz the Adata one has the SandForce SF-2281 controller

 

[kajabla]

Nah, it's fine. Tom's has used that very drive in its builds.
