[lp0 on fire]

I've updated the list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2WmxRJ
Didn't realize the SSD had an M.2 port thingy when I was selecting it. Just picked the top rated/decent priced one Should be fixed now. As for the wired adapter, didn't remember if I needed one or not so I added it in case. Thanks for pointing out my motherboard supporting it already XD I have an SSD for my current boot drive for the OS and programs so I intend to replicate it here as well. I enjoy just booting up my computer fast enough that the ethernet isn't even ready to connect yet XD;
The cooler I wasn't sure about so now I've just added a normal case fan. What's a standard stock cooler, btw?

Well your first motherboard with the inclusion of an NVMe M.2 in theory/paper is faster then your new build using a traditional SSD, will you notice the difference? That is all up to RNGesus due to all the different variables for my limited understanding of the subject.

As far as a "regular stock cooler" it would be the one Intel provides for (some) of their CPUs, which when I looked it up looks like is included. These fans are more for regular usage, they tend to get a "bad rep" because they are "noisy" (honestly I use one in my build, in my room, and its an i7-4770k) and I never had an issue with the noise at night. If you got a -k model and were planning to overclock it then yeah you would need an after market but since you are not, you should be fine.

Everything else on paper should look good. I would just check measurements and make sure the card fits the case, Don't be my brother
