Regarding the SSD, there is this http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/120GB...-Write-490MB-s for £30 or so less than the two 80GBs, although it is 120GB vs. 160GB. It has a moderate advantage in read speed and a significant advantage in write speed. IOPS also see a moderate increase. I would say get it if you don't need the extra capacity.

With the 920 vs. 930 you can save a few £ by going for the 920 but the 930 should be a little easier to OC. Unless you really want to save the pennies, go for the 930, or if you are only aiming for an OC in the low to mid 3GHz range go for the 920.
