Hi, my PSU and MB had just died on me after using it for 5yrs and I need a budget reliable rig now for some light gaming like dota2, video streaming and also able to run future games on minimum settings. Below are some of the parts that i am using back.

cpu and mobo: preferably any i5 6th gen?
graphics card:radeon 6770 sapphire vapor-x (reused)
ram: kingston 4gb 1600 ddr 3 hyper x (should i get a new 8gb ram or add another 4gb ram?)
ssd: which brand and size is the most valued?
hdd:WD Black 1TB (reused)
psu: Which PSU is stable and reliable? since it died on me and drag my MB down too
case:any cheap and good itx casing that can fit my GPU and MB+CPU?
OS:genuine windows 7/10 (where to get it cheap?)
keyboard+mouse:reused
monitor:reused

My budget is around $600, the lower the better. Thanks in advance

ZOTAC T500 120GB SSD @53.90+3
Thermaltake core V1 @79
Superflower Leadex Silver 90+ Full Modular 550W @ 93.30 +3

Total: 673.30

Thanks for the recommendation! Which parts you mentioned need to purchase @ lazada? However, if I could increase my budget to 700+ and excluding the OS, which part of the rig can be improved?
