Before I buy the parts for my PC, I want to figure out if all of the RGB on fans/etc will sync up. I'll likely be going with an Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite and a Cooler Master Hyper 212 RGB Black Edition. I also would like RGB fans to sync up - two cheaper options I saw were upgrading to the i version of the NZXT H510 case, and getting a 3-pack of Deepcool CF120s. Here are the questions - Are the Deepcool fans better or worse than the included Aer ones? Would either sync the RGB up with the motherboard/CPU cooler? Is the NZXT Smart Device v2 worth it or even useful? Is there much of a difference between the CF120 and the slightly cheaper RF120? Lastly, how would I plug them all in and/or daisy chain them, and what software would I even use? Any advice is appreciated - thanks so much!

Is there something to be said for getting a more recent X570 motherboard for upgrades with future gens? Also @5x5 I was looking at SATA SSDs and they were still that expensive. What price should they be?

Looks like decent 2TB SSDs are going for around $200, a bit more than what I already have, on PCPartPicker. Any place I should look for them?

I have a 1080p 120hz monitor and was hoping to get a solid gaming/occasional CAD rig for US$1000-1200 (plus Windows and peripherals). Is anything way too expensive for the build? Is there a better backlit keyboard and/or mouse for cheap-ish? Any and all comments and criticism would be extremely helpful!
