Question Parts List Opinion For New PC Build Please

[firejr33]

Finalizing my part list to buy during black Friday (Already have a few of the parts I found on sale, but should be within return window). Would love some feedback/advice on this. Anything worth upgrading? Mostly work on this PC (3 monitors, multiple browser windows/tabs always open, photo processing). Want the option to play some games if I choose down the line.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

The 970 Evo Plus is actually cheaper;

Thanks for the welcome!
Yea, I bought that SSD a long time ago on sale for my current PC. It ended up failing on me during a power surge and I had Samsung repair it.. So at this point just going to throw it in for extra space into the new build.

I'd rather repurpose that Samsung drive as an OS drive, alongside the app's/launchers. Use the SK Hynix drive as your game drive. Parts that will be carried over or are previously purchased, need to stipulated, mind you.

You don't think the faster speeds of the SK Hynix will make a difference w/ the OS/apps launching? Really mostly thinking about photo processing apps? Otherwise that's a great idea!
