All the PC parts should be compatible on paper but if there is something standing out please let me know. Or if there is a better alternative that I am not aware of, I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

PS. The 6750xt was $379 just yesterday :( Missed my window.

    Thank you for your thoughts! Only reason I picked the ssd is perceived reliability. Hoping to keep the machine for at least 10 years. I don’t expect the hdd randomly failing but you never know. Maybe I need to research the storage option a little bit more.

      When I installed my SSD, my PC’s startup time went from several minutes (or at least felt like it) to maybe like 30 seconds. I use HDDs for extra storage.

      in terms of reliability SSDs are nearly similar to HDDs now, technology has fastly progressed. If all you’re worried about is reliability, and not storage, then the SSD will perform just fine.
