SSD reliability and actual speeds question

[zacdmwj]

I have recently bought a Silicon Power s60 120gb SSD because I thought it was fast, but I have found out that SP has done a bait and switch according to people on amazon reviews and the read/write is far less than advertised. My two new SSD choices are between the Intel 535 Series 120gb SSD and the HyperX FURY 120gb SSD cloud 9 edition (only because it's on sale).

Should I choose the Intel 535 SSD or the HyperX FURY SSD? Or, should I stick with my Silicon Power SSD?

Intel 535 Series 120GB SSD
HyperX FURY 120GB SSD Cloud9 Edition

Why not the Intel 535 series 120gb? Intel is pretty reliable and I'm fine with paying 20 bucks more.

It's also decent , my son has a HYPER seems to be doing quite well , go Hyper or the Intel.

Why not the Samsung 850 EVO?

I like the Samsung Magician software.

Also...
In my personal testing the real-world performance between SSD's didn't matter much for my OS drive. Much of the data is buffered to System RAM (DDR3 for example) for Windows and programs you open.

I had to drop to a drive a QUARTER of the performance when RMA'ing an OCZ drive a while back and I really didn't notice much difference.

So, suit yourself but I'd just keep the SSD you have.

I'm not going to just use this for OS, but also gaming. Would these SSDs have differences in loading screens like in Skyrim?

Yes, it should be faster.
