Link the ebay post, also DO NOT buy parts one by one, they only get cheaper over time.
Get this if you want to buy now with a $600 budget.

Which eBay link to what item
These parts look good and I might buy some and mix with my preference. Also I do have a mid tower case already and a 250gb HDD(with files from old pc) which might as well get a new hdd

so is there a way to delete everything from the old hdd after i install a new hdd with new windows. ex: i have both installed and they i can access the old one on my new pc and then move files around or delete whatever
 


Yeah, do a fresh install (ignore your old HDD at this point) and set the new drive as the boot drive. After everything is set up in your system, plug in your old HDD into another SATA port and you can do transfers from there.
