I'm a educated fool with money on my mind.

They say i got to learn but nobody here to teach me,if they can't understand it how can they reach me

Power and the money,money and the power,minute after minute,hour after hour

My Motivation

get a bigger ssd like a 240gb or even 512, then also maybe a 1070 if possible, or even an rx 480, you cant sli 1060 if you ever look into it.

Hi there Grovers1 :)

 

The plan looks quite good. :) It should suffice for a good gaming experience and, depending on the editing needs, you should be able to use it for that as well. 

Is there any particular purpose of this specific SSD? Have you checked what's the difference between it and the other more popular ones? 

What games and what settings are you going after? 

 

The PSU is a bit overkill and you may be able to save some funds on getting a lower Wattage one.

 

Post back if you have any questions :)

Hey Captain,

I'm planing to use the SSD for my OS and my most important programs, i dont have to many. Games like CSGO, Halo, Dirt rally, minecraft large modpacks and starwars battlefield, hopefully VR when i can afford it. and all the normal stuff, Web browsing, microsoft documents, adobe programs and recording screen capture.

I would like my psu to be at lease semi modular

Have in mind that gaming doesn't really rely on the storage's performance for anything but the loading times. your FPS and the graphics won't change regardless if you run the game off a SSD or off a HDD.

the plan so far seems great :) I'm sure the guys will come up with more suggestions!
