i just bought something very similar. I would get a much smaller case. i bought a corsair 5005R, which is a midtower and that thing is huge with way more space than I realized. I bought my case for $69 (now listed for $126 on newegg.) I would shop the case to find something good for around $80 on sale. One variant or another is on sale at any given time.

Next i would get a 500 gig SSD and omit the 1tb hd entirely. Then when you need additional storage, buy it then. If you have an old pc, rip out the hd and make that your backup if you need an hd. Otherwise, wait till it is on sale and buy then. A hd is super easy to install and it doesn't need to be done on day1.

Lastly, I bought a mobo that had a m.2 4xpcie slot. My future...

Lastly, I bought a mobo that had a m.2 4xpcie slot. My future SSD will be that type, with speeds about 4-5x what a traditional SSD gets. But that SSD is too expensive right now...
