Also : 
 

  • Is it better to do 500-500 or should i gor for 1TB M2 ?
  • Is NVMe really needed ? 
  • Maybe I don't need that much of storage so if you help me for a good M2 maybe I ll just pick that... 

 

Thanks for your help experts ! :)

The value is basically the same, half the cost for half the space generally speaking.

Not for a gaming PC.

 

This SATA m.2 is cheaper and still quite good

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

im assuming you have a GPU allready? because otherwise this wont work. 

 

also you should probably get a 3600 instead as you are getting a third party cooler anyways.

Just look at the tier list, anything from tier C for NVMe and tier B for SATA would be solid option.

Ok so i'm going with  constantin M2 and your advice on MX500

Thanks to you guys (And you in particular @Juular) I think I have all the parts of my new computer. (Maybe switching for a 3600 but that's not a big thing). Now let's look all shop around belgium to get de best prices :)

No use to the op as he isn't in the UK. The 970 EVO is well over budget anyway, and Samsung are overpriced regardless.
