    You could save a bit of money going with 8gb ram, 16 is overkill for just gaming.

    Having recently built a new pc myself from a very outdated machine, I was blown away by the differences. Using MSI's 970 without any problems, though I picked it purely for aesthetics. Also I would agree with Welsper on getting at least a 1tb HDD, they're fairly cheap anyway and you'll need the storage space. I'd say install your OS and most played games on the SSD and everything else on the HDD.

    Also don't partition your whole SSD, Leave some space unallocated for future dead space that you can just expand your active partition into. Also remember to move your User and temp folders off your SSD. This will help extend the life of your SSD. Myself I left about 50 GBs unallocated. What OS are you planning on using?

    Wearing out a SSD as typical users is ineligible. It will takes 20 years before you replace it.

    Those statistic online are meant for server use with constant read and write 24/7.
