can anyone help?
The SSD will work fine. BUT...paying $166 for 500gb is crazy. You won't need the speeds of the 970 most likely. This is what I would do:
Type | Item | Price |
---|---|---|
CPU | AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor | $259.50 @ shopRBC |
Motherboard | Asus ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING ATX AM4 Motherboard | $140.00 |
Memory | G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory | $117.99 @ Amazon Canada |
Storage | Crucial MX500 1 TB 2.5" Solid State Drive | $134.99 @ Mike's Computer Shop |
Video Card | Zotac GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB GAMING AMP Video Card | $439.99 @ Mike's Computer Shop |
Case | Cooler Master MasterBox TD500 ATX Mid Tower Case | $93.75 @ Vuugo |
Custom | DEEPCOOL RGB 200PRO Addressable RGB LED Strip, Synchronized Control via 5V ADD-RGB Header on Motherboard, SYNC with Other 5V ADD-RGB Devices | $19.99 @ Amazon Canada |
Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts | ||
Total | $1206.21 | |

I changed the 500gb 970 for a 1tb mx500. It's cheaper and it's still more than enough for most tasks, and you won't see much difference in loading times in games between those two ssds (It'll be a few seconds at most).
One change you could make is the 2060. You could pay $450 for a RX 5700, which will give you a solid 10% more performance, possibly more and also give you 2gb extra vram. So that's something to keep in mind. But the 2060 is still a decent choice so nothing wrong there.
