Because it is a small ssd, you might want to look at transferring a lot of your files and folders to a partition on your hdd. Also, if you don`t use hibernation, then delete the file, this will free up some much needed space.
Here are a couple of guides to help you out.

I prefer the HIS card due to the cooler. It expels the hot air out of the case rather than dumping it inside.

With just the one card, I don`t think that will be much of an issue, especially in the 200R. Plus the Powercolor comes with free games, which makes it a sweeter deal.

The HIS comes with BF4 and a free magnetic screwdriver!!!!

Oh, a magnetic screw driver, I must have missed that.

And I noticed you specced the Powercolor in another thread and quoted the free games.

The screwdriver clinched it for me. Thanks for everything chaps.

Is the difference in Ram between the powercooler and the HIS going to make much difference?
