Hi Guys, Practically a newbie builder.
My use case - gaming with possibility for starter streaming/youtube videos(from what i gather they have similar requirements), workflow for photo editing and some video editing, Cad and light 3d modelling. I've had to go for a wifi mobo as i'm nowhere near my router and hardwiring would be a royal pain with over 30ft of wiring.
I've been waffling between 2 builds or a combination of the 2. They are

VS

My questions are:
1. What's the real world performance difference between the 2 builds?
2. I had happily selected the MOBO, but of late I've been reading the older B450 boards (incl this one) have compatibility issues even after BIOS flash? Although many have also haven't had a problem. Beginning to have doubts about whether to go for it anymore. What's an option in a similar price range if so? Due to the wifi requirement I seems to be limited in my options. (pcie wifi cards seem to be costing me more as compared to cards with onboard wifi). Some who had problems, have gotten it to work with USB flashing it before installing any modules(no CPU RAM GPU), is that a thing?
3.How much of real world difference between the samsung NVMe vs half it's price Adata SATA SSD?
4. If I do go for the cheaper build, is it a good option for upgrades in the future? 3-4 yrs?
Thanks
