UPDATE:

I pretty much got rid of the old list as the ram was not compatible. I have done more research and have come up with these:

CPU:
Intel Celeron G3900
OR
Intel Xeon E3-1220 V5

I believe both are compatible but I am not sure if a desktop cpu would do or I need the xeon?

Motherboards:

Supermicro X11SSH-F
OR
SUPERMICRO MBD-X11SSH-F-O

heard that these are popular any recommendations?

RAM:
Supermicro 8GB MEM-DR480L-CL02-EU24
according to super-micro this ram is tested and compatible with both boards?

Powersupply:
Corsair 450W VS Series VS450
80+ good enough?

case:
DIYPC Solo-T2-R Black
cheapest case I could find, does it matter much?

Storage:

3*3TB, +
1 Kingston 64GB SSSDNOW 100.

WD red or seagate ironwolf?

Graphics:
gigabyte 570GTX

I have one not being used.

any answers or help would be appreciated!

I will look more into the system board later, but it is more important to me for the beginning to ask about the plan for your storage because you have only one disk in this list.
How are you planning to use the system ?

Thanks for replying, I plan to use the system for home file storage and media streaming (Plex Media Server), I was planning on getting more WD Red drives as well, would smaller drives such as 5*2TB be better for speed/redundancy?
