would get a 1TB Sata SSD for nearly the same price

eventually cheaper and quicker RAM

the ssd is an m.2, I heared is faster than an 2.5'', and concerning the ram they are the only ones suiting my needs availabe on we website that I am willing to buy them from B&H.

Whilst the ssd is indeed a bit faster unless you are doing some really heavy rendering, video editing, use of a scratchdisk,... you will not notice any difference what so ever between an m.2 drive or sata drive except that you can get a 1tb drive for the same price and have a lot more storage. Any reason you only want to buy from b&h? You'll end up with a far more expensive computer that way.

I agree with this statement. If you're gaming, prioritize capacity over throughput. Id wrather purchase a SATAIII M.2 SSD and get twice the capacity for my money, not have to deal with constantly freeing up drive space than purchase a NVME drive that cost twice as much with no noticeable difference.

I am from Europe (Romania) and they pretty much offer the best price considering I have to pay for shipping. I replaced the ssd with the one you mentioned, you are right. Best for 1T of ssd and avoid for now investing in an hdd. I guess all the components are compatible between each other, right?

No local romanian shops that would be a better deal?
