Even though its very slow, I honestly don't really care about speed, I only have it because it is faster than the hard drive

Why the wd purple?

The ssd is very slow I'd change that for a wd blue as those are far better or a curcial mx500.

The psu is just kinda bad so that has to be changed.

 

Whats your total budget?

3 of the items selected are out of stock
Also, wouldn't shipping from several places cause the shipping cost overall to be more expensive?
And also, my original post was just wondering if the setup I created be a bad idea or not, so it isn't necessary to completely change everything if the whole setup works well

The reason the whole setup gets changed is well because that one in the list is just better for gaming. Thus parts are changed accordingly. Which parts are out of stock so I can find an alternative?

The wd purple is a very slow hard drive and not really meant for game storage and you will notice it as those run at 5400rpm normally and that is not good at all for games.

The ssd should be changed as with slow I mean it will also use your cpu more and ram as it does not have a cache on board. It's also a lot lower quality and will fail far sooner.

Psu is low quality, cannot reach it's advertised wattage, lacks protections and can kill your system if tripped.
