There isn't a giant difference between a 2600 and a 1600. Maby get the r5 1600 and a 1660 ti when the price is ok in india.

Yes you should have no problem fitting everything inside of the H500i.

I would ask something like 250 - 350 € in Austria but it always depends how much pc parts cost in your country....

This is where you can add it on Windows 10 ( It's in german but should look the same). No problem

The PSU probably could manage your hardware but it would be close. A 1080 ti not overclocked consumes around 290 Watts and a 270X can need over 100 Watts. I would upgrade to a better PSU like a 600 W because PSU's also get quieter if they are not under full load.

Yes it can. But you can just try it out. Make a small backup onto an USB or somthing and just test out some settings.

I have a 7700k so basicly the same and I see no need for an upgrade. As long as you CPU doesn't really bottleneck you gpu I would wait with upgrading.

I would say you should have no problem as long as you stick to a single GPU.

You clould go with DisplayPort but HDMI should be enough for 1080p at 144hz

Basicly never.... I often take my pc to lan partys with my car, never secured the aio or done anything tho prevent my pc from sliding around. I have this Arcitc aio since 3-4 years and it always worked fine. Installing an aio is easy, sometimes even simpler than an air cooler but they are both easy to install. The only thing you have to watch out for is if your case supports a 360mm. There are no big differences between most of the coolers. Just take a cheap one form amazon which has the features you want and maybe silent fans.

For rad you can look in your bios or just google your mainboard if it supports it. If not you would have to buy a raid card. I can't help you with setting up such an server on Linux. I use windows server and on the pc I want to backup FreeFileSync (I`ve added the server as a Network share/drive and assinged it a drive letter).

The ssd won't degrade nearly at all while booting because you are only reading files and not writing. SSDs are only degraded while writing/overwriting data.
