I'm looking to build a new PC before the end of this year (i.e. Christmas) and was wanting to get some other people's perspectives. Parts list can be found below (please note the 3700x will probably be a 5800x, depends on availability), I'm looking to get a black/purple theme (I'm not looking to go into a lot of RGB). I'll be reusing my current GPU and upgrading that sometime later down the line (i.e. 2 years when next gen comes out).
My main concern is storage, I would absolutely love to not have any SATA driver to limit the number of cables. I'm not worried about speed at all (I am interested in seeing how future games take advantage of fast storage so I might take that back) any SSD is fast enough for me. I guess reliability is a concern, but I'm probably just being a pessimist. My current set up has a 500GB SSD and a 2TB HDD (~250GB free) , my natural thought is I want more storage than I have currently however I have a ton of steam games I never (will) use so I may not even need that much.
List is pretty solid otherwise, only thing stopping me from buying right now is waiting for sales (I have 2 month to wait after all). If I find a really good deal that's not on the list, I'm willing to swap out parts aside from the ones already purchased.
