    Revamp got a reaction from Hainault in Im puzzled with lens choices   
    I picked up the sigma 70-200 for $500 and love it for portrait style work. For studio work or something I want more of the background, the 24-105/f4 is kind of a solid go to.
    With landscapes and wildlife, I would choose the 24-105 over the 24-70/2.8. Simply because in landscape, you generally don't want the bokeh effect, so if you're shooting when its dark enough to need 2.8 aperature, it's likely not going to be the crisp image you want anyways.
     
    If you can pick up used id say grab the 70-200 which will cover a lot of closer range wildlife as well as portrait work, and the 24-105 which will cover more landscape, as well as some close range wildlife/portrait as well. With those 2 lens alone, you have a lot of possibilities with use. Now ofcourse neither are super telephoto lens so you're not capturing a hummingbird from across a field, but for the general use these should cover you.
     
    I also shoot the 77D.

    Having too much as far as PSU capabilities won't hurt anything. Your PC will pull what it needs.

    Idk why people always get worked up over "mined on", if a gamer sells his gpu at $xxxx, the card is worth the same as a "mined on" card of the same model... In all honesty, a lot of times, miners take better care of their cards than everyday gamers lol.

    Revamp got a reaction from Liquid_Z in 200$ to spend on upgrades...   
    Haha no problem, generally the number that fluctuates (since you mentioned hovers "around") is the wattage load the UPS is powering at that time.
    Mine generally sits anywhere from like 180-360 depending on what I'm doing
     
     
    For OP: if you do get a UPS, generally youll have battery powered outlets, and normal surge protected outlets. Typically you want your PC and 1 primary monitor (don't waste battery power on extra screens in the instance of a power outage), and if your modem/router is nearby and you do a lot of internet work, I keep those battery powered as well to give me time to save whatever I'm doing.
     
    Things like speakers and extra peripherals are non-critical so don't waste battery juice on those.

    Externall hdds are often cheap now. Look at this drive. https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-Expansion-Desktop-External-STEB8000100/dp/B01HAPGEIE Normally a seagate barrcuada inside.
     
    Without hotswap changing drives is a pain, its much easier to keep the ones in the server in there and keep the backups external. It also reduces raid failures as taking out a drive and replace it may cause data loss if there are errors on the drive.

    I would for drives get 6-12TB (6-8 is normally the gb/$) drives and use them in a 'hot'(main one) NAS.
    If want easy access to the old drives get a 24 drive case and then add 72 drive disk shelves if you want even more drive bays. This can be your cold or archived storage it still will allow easy access to your files but you can configure it for even lower power usage.

    Revamp got a reaction from Tezza22 in Case recommendations   
    Most cases are setup for front/rear cooling (top cooling as well, but can do fine without). I don't think I have really seen many side cooled cases that were reliant on the side cooling.
     
    For the space why don't you kind of give us a run down on the measurements, mobo form factor, etc.
