Samsung evo 500gb at $259usd is a little ex. There is someone in blue forum selling amazon set of 500gb evo at $299. Feel that it is a better deal (Not affliated to him). Otherwise, can consider mx100 512gb at US$199.

As for case, you can consider arc midi r2 at $129.

Rams is avexir.

Not sure on how u gonna reuse windows, but aint gonna go further for that.

Arc mini r2 can only fit mATX. And its roughly the same size as Arc Midi r2 and cheaper by $10 nia. Might as well get Midi.

Gt a few ppl swear that they will not get 410 due to cable management. But i own the Arc Midi before and i must say, it is a very good case.

You can search for evo 500gb, it would show up. But whatever dealings u make with him and whatever problems u faced, is your problem liao. Just saying first.

one more question, the PSU 600w is enough for my whole rig right? Thanks!

600w is more than enough, unless u r getting the lightning or classified which uses much more power.
