Here's my build, I'm looking for some ways to improve it while still keeping it as clean looking as possible. My biggest problem right now is the M.2 ssd i have is too small, I need one around 500GBs but haven't found any, and would also like it in black. I'm looking to get a smaller case that is all black and will fit two cards and my cooler, and I don't need any extra storage besides an M.2.

 

Intel Pentium G3258 @ 4.5GHz

MSI GTX 760

MSI Z97M

Kingston Fury Black 16GB

EVGA 750G2

Define R4 Blackout

MyDigitalSSD Super Cache M.2 128GB

Corsiar H105

@ZetZet Thanks for helping, I'll probably get the Kingston M.2 once it's cheaper since it's all black.

 

@Sam Z Man I was thinking about getting the Enthoo Evolv but i don't know much about it, It came out after my build.

Also how can I fix that? I just checked and my card is almost perfectly flat.

you went a bit overboard with the memory and the case, and why not grab a normal 2.5 inch ssd and hide it behind the mobo tray? that way it still looks clean and they are often a bit cheaper than m.2

@simson0606 I plan on upgrading the gpu and cpu and run sli, I also had an ssd but I like my M.2 way more since it doesn't need cables and is hidden under the gpu

@IanDrexP I have a 1TB external, and can hardly fill it up past 500, and would rather get a fast ssd for hard to run games

If you have 16gb of ram your PC shouldn't need to make draw calls to your hard drive while playing games, a SSD would only help load times.
