S340. Budget case that doesn't look too bad with mATX motherboard and has a PSU shroud. I love the PSU shroud on my H440. 850-EVO's are good drives, stay clear of the 840 series though, heard bad things about 'em. Your RAM is fine.

I'm not going to sit and link a bunch of SSDs, but any of the following will be fine;
Samsung 850-EVO, Samsung 850 Pro, Crucial BX100, Crucial MX100, Crucial MX200, Kingston Fury. A few more but those are usually well priced and widely available. Get whichever capacity is sufficient for you, and that you can afford.

Change the HDD to Western Digital Blue 1TB.
They're overall better HDD's.

Why do you need a motherboard upgrade?

Don't try being sly by removing your last post to post it again as a sneaky wee bump.

What's the situation? Did you edit your OT with new info or something? I don't understand.

You caught me. I'm looking to build a second PC with a few of my old parts from my main PC that I upgrade.

So you're looking for a new rig? What components do you already have that you'll be using in it? What will the 2nd PC be used for? Do you need peripherals for it? What is your budget for the components needed for the 2nd PC?
