Seems like keeping my current NVME SSD as exclusively system drive but adding a 1tb SATA SSD as gaming/movies drive would be smarter than upgrading it to a bigger one?

I'm not dead set on buying those watercoolers, especially since current stock cooler for fx6350 seems surprisingly good but I do feel like with those water coolers the whole system would be considerably more quiet when gaming. Feel free to correct me. My GPU is currently set to no fan until 60something degrees and it's quite nice, but it is NOTICABLE when the fans kick in around 65. Also one of the fans seems to have later started to make somewhat of a whiny noise but there's still warranty on that card so I might try and get it fixed.

Hello everyone. Been a fan of LTT for a long time and decided to join the forum at last. So, I'm looking for advice on upgrading my PC sometime around May next year as I have birthday in May. I hope to save up around €600(~$660) until then starting new year. Also maybe suggestions on what to look forward to around that time? My current setup: MB: Asus Sabertooth 990fx r2.0 CPU: AMD fx6350 with stock cooler. GPU: Gigabyte RX Vega64 OC. SSD/HDD: 256gb 970evo nvme SSD + 1TB wd drive. PSU: RM750i PSU. RAM: 12 gigs of Kingston DDR3 at 1333 i think. Case: NZXT340 34" Samsung S34J550WQU 75hz monitor. The setup might seem somewhat strange but I got the GPU and the SSD for a cheap. Until then I had GTX770 and a regular sata SSD. I plan in keeping my GPU, SSD and the PSU, partly due to them being quite good, mostly due to finances. What I hope to upgrade though is: CPU - Ryzen R5 3600(the price difference between 3600 and 3600x in Latvia is too big for my liking) MB - something along the lines of MSI Tomahawk b450 seemed nice. DDR4 16gigs of 3200mhz. I'm liking the idea of having NZXT Kraken x62 for cpu and x52+G12 for my GPU. I do quite like my current case but I would like something with a little more space for cable management and more space for cooling radiators. Optional: Upgrade the SSD to a 512 gigs one but that's not as important. I hope that by May 600€ should be enough for this. I'm open to any advice, and I don't have any particular favourite manufacturers. Sidenote: I'm from Latvia, so sites like newegg and amazon are of very little use to me due to shipping costs except that I do use those sites as a reference what to look for and then search on the local stores. I can maybe order something off amazon.co.uk as I have a relative in the UK but I have no guarantee as to when he'll visit Latvia again. Thanks in advance and have a nice day. Tom.
