Hello,
I am in the search for a good SSD for my first build and I found this SSD for only $160.

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E1682...

Mushkin Enhanced Chronos MKNSSDCR240GB 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
$159.99

This is the second cheapest 240GB SSD I found in newegg.ca. I could go for lower capacity SSDs but I am searching for an SSD big enough to store at least 3 games, OS and other software and whatnot required and a some 20-30 songs.

So the question is, is it good?
I just want to game and do usual stuff such as web browsing, watching videos and doing homework.

If you can find a better SSD maybe in NCIX or in newegg, that would be great.

The specs of my build so far if it helps:

CPU: i5 3570K $226

Cooler: CM Hyper 212 Evo $21

Mobo: MSI Z77 G45 Micro ATX (I am in a really tight budget and I can't fit ATX mobos in my budget) $107

GPU: HIS IceQ X² H797QM3G2M Radeon HD 7970 $360

Case: Rosewill BLACKHAWK Gaming $90

PSU: Rosewill HIVE Series HIVE-650 650W Continuous @40°C, 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified, Modular Design, Single +12V Rail $80

RAM: ADATA XPG Gaming Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600

SSD: Mushkin Enhanced Chronos MKNSSDCR240GB ? $160


Any help will be greatly appreciated. :)
