Well he wants to purchase lower sized SSD, and I couldn't find a 860 at 120 gigs on MD website. So settled for that instead. He keeps saying that he'll only keep apps and games on the SSD, therefore, he doesn't need a bigger one.You picked everything good but why not a good SSD, something like Samsung 860 EVO.
Will absolutely gonna mention this to him. I myself like white, but never bought one for this reason alone.One thing regarding the cabinet: I have the same model (spec alpha white-red) and its really difficult to keep the white surface clean at all times, specially when you don't do dusting every other day. The dust and random stains looks quite prominent on it, which makes me think to switch to black red variant.
Assuming that you don't have special love for white color, I'd suggest to go for black red variant.
The BenQ 2411P was selected. As he would like to experience 144 Hz, he doesn't care that much for an IPS panel.Everything looks good as vineet sharma white cabinet will attract more dusts you can switch it to grey silver to overcome this.
Which monitor did you selected?
AOC has some great looking monitors for good pricing

Change graphics card to this:

Oh ffs Intel! Anyway, budget is as low as possible, like 2k max. I saw some cooler master unit around 1600 on MD, forgot the model, so that won't fit then eh?Yes,you need an aftermarket cooler as intel "k" versions processors don't come with stock cooler nowadays.How much is your budget for the cooler?Biggest issue is that corsair spec alpha has a max clearance of 156mm for cpu cooler & most good cpu coolers exceed this.
The system will never be overclocked. Also the K version has higher clocks right? That's the reason to go for it. Why won't anyone purchase a K edition when it comes with higher base clock? Lol.Then why are you even buying a "k" edition processor,running such a processor with a less than 3k cooler is like asking for trouble not to mention that 3k cooler will only be able to run it at its stock speed.For safely overclocking you need a 4-5k cooler.
Better change your entire config,go for a non-k processor & a cheaper mobo.
Get non K version problem solved I don't think there will be major gain with those bump in clocks and OP will not overclock K version will heat more as its TDP is rated 95 watts so is energy consumption I think he would be fine with non k versionThe system will never be overclocked. Also the K version has higher clocks right? That's the reason to go for it. Why won't anyone purchase a K edition when it comes with higher base clock? Lol.
I didn't realise you have to invest behind a good cooler! However, if what you say is true, then please suggest one accordingly. Budget is already pushing maximum limit, that's why didn't want to invest much behind cooler, but if it's necessary, then obviously would.
Select any cabinet which supports 165mm cpu cooler & almost any good cpu cooler will fit.
If you don't care for the looks then this one has a good cooling performance:

Most good cpu coolers need 160-165mm of clearance which is mentioned in specs of cabinet on their product page on manufacturer's website.How to choose cabinet if go for Good Cooler for future proof?
Any measurements?
