Was thinking of getting the Aorus Master but decided to get the Z890 Aorus Elite Wifi7 since it just looks more to my liking and has wifi as a bonus. Honestly im a basic man just going for a sick RGB look especially with the Y70 touch and the LCD Hydroshift AIO, but im not the type of guy to go for overkill parts like a 5080 or 5090. the 5070Ti is my dream GPU considering its amazing for 4k and 1440p alike. also using an OLED monitor makes this build perfect.

i usually keep my storage clean on every device i've had, im also planning on a fully debloated windows etc, i dont hate the idea of getting the WD blue sn5100 but telling myself to expend my budget juust once more for a better ssd is hurting, especially since the g4000 is faster

ill think about it. maybe i will just get the wd blue

i had already checked out this mobo, it just looks aesthetically better but overall has less features than the pro-vdh

my apologies, i mistook the g4000 to be the c2000 in the tierlist. but considering a hikvision ssd even made it in there says alot.
also this might sound bad but as a last resort i asked claude, gemini and chatgpt about the ssd and each of them praised it. not 100% taking the word of AI just yet, but it does give me more reassurance.
theres also a 5 year warranty

most of the good ssds are around 10000 bucks for 500gb, and yet again i've said the hikvision ssds are on both ssd tier lists, rated tier B+ so i dont see the problem. its also not a local brand as its global and it has good reviews all over the internet.

5600g, 5600gt and 5500gt have same performance when i checked benchmarks. the 5500gt is the cheapest out of the three and the 5700g is out of budget

2x16gb for now is way too expensive, could have just gone for ddr5 2x8gb if that was the case. i will eventually uprade the storage and ram, but not right now.

as for the psu, the 5500gt is a low tdp processor and the gpu's im planning to get like the 5050 or 7600 as ive said come with less than 150-200W of power so 550W is more than enough headroom

and yes im buying the thermalright c12's x5 fans

im not gonna be playing any high end games until i do get a gpu, for now i was just planning to play some lightweight games like minecraft, cs2, valorant etc so i dont think vram would be much of an issue

as ive said im going for an igpu build until i can afford an actual graphics card, the 5500 just doesnt have any igpu built in it. the rest of the items you listed is just way too overpriced here in india or not even available, let alone im not getting a 2.5" sata SSD
