$450 can get better then that. I'll wait for someone to post s build, on mobile so PCPP is a pain.

I have the same case, but in gunmetal color.

Black leaves fingerprints so keep that in mind if that's an issue for you.

I would spend a little more and get a better psu and ssd. The ones you have there are pretty much bottom of the barrel.

The PSU is fine. Evga makes some pretty solid power supplies.

Corsair CX series is better.

I think they are equally as good. I used both CX and the EVGA ones and both have lasted 3+ years with no issues. CX one did whine a bit.
