Spent way too much on the SSD and the power supply - not good for performance when doing budget builds.

with that budget i would rather get a 1tb 7200rpm harddrive because there isnt much left of the 250gb after the os and a few games are on it.
if you do that you could get a 950 with the money you save.

Why would you spend $160 on a GTX 950 when you can get an equally performing R7 360 for $100?
