You can reuse the SSD that you already have for your OS/Application drive. If you want you can add a HDD for any bulky storage uses like music or videos.

Thank you both for the suggestions . I'm putting together a list from both list partially from what they have in stock right now .
Video card : would a RX 5700 XT make a noticeable difference from a RX 5700 with either of those builds?

For $20 I'd go for the 5700XT as you get 10% more performance for less than 10% cost.
