Building an used price performance system, is this good enough?

Hello everyone! I have come back with a good enough idea on how to get the best used price performance PC

No i am not going to give some tips because i am new to this used market anyway. Before i get deeper i want to give these 5 main points

 

1. Budget and location

I am in Indonesia, so some of you might not know how are the pricing but i will give a rough idea for how much Rupiah is worth to USD

1 USD = Rp 13.750 according to coinmill

and i have a budget at $500-600. New Hardware is undoable for me since DDR4 shortage is also here

 

2. AIM

Crysis 3, BF 1, PUBG, Fortnite gaming, streaming, and little workstation for softworks

 

3. Displays

Just one monitor, LG 27MP59-G

 

4. Peripherals

Logitech G502, G633, G403 (Those are Mouse, Headset, and Keyboard from one brand)

 

5. Why do you upgrade?

I want to break free from my Core 2 Duo system and feel a different experience

So far i got these parts and i wonder if it is worth to buy a $45 128GB SSD that already has Windows 10 Installed, Used tho but probably decent

Xeon X5670 and Asus P6T X58 SE bundle for $181

R9 280X 3GB for $181

Coolermaster 550W for $35

HP Case for $7

1TB Seagate BarraCuda HDD $50

Team Eliteplus 16GB DDR3 $116

Total $557 without SSD with OS ($45)

 

Thank you everyone!
