No need for a 4770 in gaming, a 4690 would be better.

 

This seems like a pre-built. I recommend building for much cheaper.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

i7 9700K (5.2Ghz @1.2V); MSI Z390 Gaming Edge AC; Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 16GB 3200 CAS 16; H100i RGB Platinum; Samsung 970 Evo 1TB; Samsung 850 Evo 500GB; WD Black 3 TB; Phanteks 350x; Corsair RM19750w.

 

Laptop: Dell XPS 15 4K 9750H GTX 1650 16GB Ram 256GB SSD

1. swap the i7 for an i5 4690, 2. swap the mobo for something a bit higher quality, 3. you're gonna need a case, and 4. you're gonna need a power supply.

I already bought it, sadly, this was way back when I knew nothing about my PCs...

I have the power supply, XFX XTR 550W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply. So you think instead of buying an SSD I should buy a better mobo?

 

Its probably a pre-built. I doubt the PSU is any good.

...XFX XTR 550W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply is not good? A GTX 970 is not good?

If your HDD is fine for now, then yeah, I'd go for a better mobo.

 

And the GTX 970 is a great GPU, I've got the gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming and absolutely love it.

Oh ok. I will get a... Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard? Good enough?

Yes, that motherboard would work just fine, though as you are getting a non-k series processor, you might as well save some money and get a H97 mobo instead.
