So I haven't built a PC since the Q9650 days (Currently what I am rocking now) And I have a 9th gen i7 laptop W/1660ti

SO I figured it is time to build something "Future Proof", well not really, it doesn't really exist.  

 

So here is a small list, I already have some of the stuff on the list, so I need to get about 2700 to upgrade.

Well that will do.

do you need all that SSD? why not a couple of 4-6TB HDD instead.

Is it only for gaming?

You don’t need the thermal compound. The AIO includes it already.
