I am looking at buying a new SSD for my gaming rig with 2600k, GTX 580 & Asus Maximus IV Extreme. Looked at the Samsung 840 pro and was very impressed with its performance. Is it the best in the market right now? My Budget is around 13-14k. What is the best price of the 256GB 840 pro? Any other good alternatives matching its performance?

this 256GB SSD is not available in the market. I am trying to buy it from more than one month and the sellers in S.P. Road Bangalore are saying it will not be available for another one month.
