Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Just general games nothing more heavy than GTA V

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): monitor, keyboard, headset and mouse is already fixed.

seems solid.  I'd consider stepping up to a 500GB NVME, though.  Longer lifespan, and shouldn't cost much more.

I am not sure if you are me, you are probably not me, but you might run out of that 2TB of space, rethink your needs, and your potential needs, interests.. For example - for me 16GB RAM is not enough, neither was the storage I originally settled with.. but I couldn't have afforded more at the time... I do not know about you.
Also - do not cheep out on the power supply, that one looks okay, but I'm not very good when it comes to them.
Also cooling - noise might distract you if you are easily distracted... you do not even have to do something that needs focus.. but it might make you stressed out..
Also it's good to have extra space for say another hard drive, a PCI slot free, 2 if possible.. you like never know what can happen .. we change every day, every month.. you might want something later.. but your computer might not support it.
Last thing - get a good cooler, if you'll be doing some heavy tasks, that's what I got recommended with a CPU of that range(stock was apparently too bad).

Although Windows needs more storage than Linux - it should still be fine, if they install games and other decent-to-big storage-requiring software, that is.
Not sure what you mean by the longer lifespan.. of course that would be, for most people, desirable.. I heard SSD-s last up to 5-7 years, same like HDD-s :/

Yes and no.

 

SSD's are rated by "TBW - Terabytes (Total) Bytes Written"

And TBW on drives scales linearly with drive size, as wear is spread across more flash.  So a 256GB SSD has 1/2 the rated TBW of a 512.  (And a 512 is rated at 1/2 the TBW of a 1TB)

Fuck xD
What about a HDD-s?
