nex is mediocre and overpriced


get 16 gb of ram


cut back on the case to pay for these two changes
 

You are paying more $$ to have separate ones you can just partition it and make it appear as 2-3 Hard drives in windows i edited my post above for possible builds.

 


It is up to you ssd only thing it does is improves load time but GPU increases your FPS personally id go with higher fps.
Also it is always easier to add an ssd later on you cant really add a gpu unless you go sli or have to replace old one.
