    Ok you will be able to do a complete reformat of the SSD and fresh clean install of Windows without even needing to touch the RAID 1 mirror. It may be best to unplug the disks while installing Windows just to be extra safe.

    So after scouring all that pcpp has to offer everything you listed was going over budget by a little bit(monitor and os)but only by 100cad. this rig would be good for overclocking too

    Are you overclocking?
    Do you need a Keyboard?
    What case do you want?
    Why a GTX 970? Why not a R9 390?

    yeah this is pretty much the desktop equivalent to that, with desktop hardware you really can't get anything lower spec and the monitor i use two of these monitors: http://www.amazon.com/Dell-P2314H-23-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitor/dp/B00EMB4KVS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1445976201&sr=8-1&keywords=dell+p2314h

    Well, for a super low end budget build the only thing a PSU needs to do is provide some sort of power.  A system of this level will use 50 watts max. maybe so if you go with a 500 watt super shitty PSU you will not have any problems.

    yeah pcpp is working for me, the parts that are listed are really as cheap/low as they come because windows requires 4gb to be installed, and 480W is legit the cheapest psu that is from a sorta reputable brand but here is another build that has a 80GB WD blue drive which is  a respectable brand
