Thiiiis.



So therefore:

Intel i5 4440 $181.98
ASRock B85M-ITX $80.38
Crucial Ballistix Sport 2x4GB $59.99
Crucial M500 120GB SSD $79.31

Total: $401.66
Add in your case/PSU/ODD: $521.62

You can even put in the 1TB Black and it's cheaper, whilst performing about the same.

This.

SSD's are the way to go man. With that 120gb one, you can chuck on your OS and some important programs you want to load super quick (maybe like a favorite game of something) and then leave a majority of the space free. Everything will remain nice a quick then.

Then just get a cheap as 1TB HDD for the rest of your other stuff and you are good to go my friend.
