Which GPU, and is an SSD really worth it?

I have a £900 budget on my next gaming system, the next three options all come to the same price.

GTX 680 + SSD
AMD 7970 + SSD
GTX 770



In the UK they all individually add up to £320. Is an SSD a really good thing to have? And is it worth having it instead of the extra power of the GTX 770? Thanks.

The GTX 770 is a great card but you can get 80% performance of the 770 with a card half the price. Up to you if that extra 20% is worth twice as much.

As for the SSD, it's not going to increase your FPS but it does make for an overall better experience. Everything is much snappier and you save money on your power bill.
