No problem. Admittedly I've been out of the second-hand hardware market for some time so I may be somewhat off the mark. Just to explain my prices in more detail:
Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4 3000 MHz is available brand new from Amazon for a touch over £100. Minus 20% for second-hand reaches £80 roughly.
Samsung MZ-V7S500BW 970 EVO Plus 500 GB is available for a similar £105, so minus 20% comes to roughly £80 again. Also worth noting this listing on amazon warehouse is only £93 which as you mention, can equally be RMA'd despite being second hand + comes with Amazon's return policy.
A 4TB HDD from CEX is £55 which admittedly can't be S.M.A.R.T. tested before purchase, and there were no Seagate 4TB drives on CEX to compare against. A Brand new Seagate 4TB HDD on Amazon is roughly £88 so minus 20% comes to £66. Agreed I was way off on this one.
You may or may not agree with the 20% off for second hand which is fine, it's just how I personally assess things. Notably the prices for the brand new RAM and SSD together (£205) almost exactly match what you suggest listing your items for, so you may want to adjust expectations on those.
Good luck with selling!

Yep, good motherboard, can use the current state-of-the-art drives.
The top end of your budget would cover the cheapest few 1TB drives in 2.5" SATA, but it seems much better to go for 500GB and have the pick of every model and interface type.
Any SSD is a big improvement over traditional HDD, from there the real world improvements between SSD types are more modest but the better type (@ 500GB) are well within your price range.
Drives that can exploit your M.2 NVMe PCIex4 start at £100. Samsung are one of the most highly regarded and stand out performers so for me the
860 EVO at £130 would be a no brainer upgrade over the £100 entry point.EDIT 970 EVO at £180They have newer 960 EVO and 970 EVO that are clearly better on paper but the real world improvement will be modest unless you're doing incredibly drive intensive work. Once you have a blazing fast SSD and all the performance bottlenecks are elsewhere an even more blazing fast SSD only gets you so much.
TL:DR; Buy this

I too notice a stutter when I start recording, as well as taking a Steam screenshot (gets REALLY bad when at 8k DSR), but a few seconds after the recording starts, it's gone (haven't had replay enabled long enough to notice any impact aside from maybe in GTA V).
​
As for additional storage, an NVME device would only really help when it comes to editing. The absolute highest settings for Shadowplay puts the maximum bitrate at 50 megabits per second for up to QHD (1440p) recordings, while recording in 4k and higher puts the maximum at 130 megabits/second (that 6.25 and 16.25 megabytes per second respectively), so bandwidth wise, you could comfortably record to a UHS-3 SD card. Recording to SSD will also reduce the odds of parts of the video being corrupted due to extraneous activity.
​
This is the SSD I'm recording to BTW: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-500GB-Solid-State-Drive/dp/B07CGGP7SV
​
Although it wasn't with Shadowplay (even though I was able to enable it via workaround), rather it was OBS or the Windows 10 native screen capture software, but on my old laptop (powered by dual GT 750ms and the i7 4700mq), while the video or sound itself wasn't garbled, the AV sync was completely FUBAR'd, but as it was a video I needed to get posted ASAP, as it was detailing a bad patch within a game, I couldn't be bothered to fix it. I suspect this was caused by a similar issue.

This is everything that I have in my PC,I don't know the buget,beacuse I upgraded my pc so many times,i think it's around 1500-2000 euros.
The 970 EVO is currently at 109,00. https://www.amazon.fr/Samsung-970-MZ-V7E500BW-Evo-interne/dp/B07CGGP7SV/
Interesting.
Hey guys! New here in the thread, with the black friday sales I was hoping I could get a SSD. For a while my HDD has been doing some weird noises and I wanted to switch to a 1TB SSD and migrate my whole system on it (fresh install, then copy important files etc..) and have the hdd if possible as a secondary drive. But after doing a bit of research I found out that SSDs have a short life span and one I had found on NewEgg 5/10 would die in about 3months. So my question is, is it safe to migrate my whole system to an SSD? Will it hold for 4 years for example? And lastly should I get a Samsung 860 QVO 1TB (89€) or 970 EVO 500GB (80€).
Here are the links to both: https://www.cdiscount.com/informatique/ssd/samsung-disque-ssd-interne-860-qvo-1to-2-5/f-10703-sam8801643443757.html?awc=6948_1575018418_35ffa30a04014807f826edac8a3aa8fd&refer=zanoxpb&cid=affil&cm_mmc=zanoxpb-_-169249

I hope my question is not too long, I am grateful for any answers!
Will there be a noticeable speed increase in boot times and general applications going from an SSD to an M.2 NVME?
The Spec Sheet from the website is usually not a complete data sheet, but an abbreviated form. NVME should be fine with this model.
Those for example should be fine:

Price is pretty excellent from what I've seen so far on Newegg/Amazon. Beats them by about $20 at their lowest.
