I would have gone with an MSI board like the Tomahawk MAX and also different SSD/s as those two are probably overpriced compared to other brands. You don't need that kit either as you really only need a Phillips screwdriver and a pair of snips for the cable ties.

I got the ssds for both £125, there was an offer where I work. I work for Currys so I get discount. I bought the ifixit kit not just for this but for my work also so that’s I invested into it.
