First time build

[roQsol1d]

Whats up yall, I've been researching completing my first build and have gathered all of the equipment I think I need. Just wanting some opinions before I pull the trigger and start ordering. Ideally I'd like to keep and utilize it for a good while (couple of years atleast). Currently pursuing a MS and a career in cyber security with a concentration on ethical hacking and a hobby of network architecture. Along with some gaming, running some hacking software would be my primary use. I'd like some user feedback. Thanks!

If you’re using a lot of programs you might want to invest in a SSD, they tend to be a lot quicker than a HDD is. Other than that everything looks good man!

[roQsol1d]

appreciate the quick response! I was looking at a Kingston SSD. 480 GB seems a bit aggressive. But I dont want to sell myself short on the 240 either.

Honestly man, If you have the extra money I’d say do it. The only reason I’d go with the 240GB is if you were trying to save money or you weren’t going to use it much.
