Not a lot of storage initially however you could add in more later, used Amazon for parts since it was preferred however it would be a little bit cheaper if you utilized the other retailors on PCPer. Disregard the error message as the MSI MAX boards have been updated to work with the Ryzen 3rd gen CPU's.

It should be feasible, just go with a less powerful GPU. I'll take a look in a little bit.

This Gigabyte board should be what you need but you might want to double check the features to make sure. The GTX 1660 Ti is a really good 1080P gaming GPU.
