This is what I had planned. The M.2 is the only new drive and other two are from my current PC. The motherboard and case are still TBD.

The reason I have the Gigabyte Z690 AERO G is because it beat out every other $400- (The original motherboard I was recommended on PCPP was $329) I compared it with. As long as the motherboard has Bluetooth I'm open to other options that work well with my other parts.

For the case I'd like to keep my Blu-ray burner in case I ever need to burn something and I wouldn't mind a front USB-C port to plug in my headphones instead of having the USB adapter hanging down. I'd rather not spend $200+ but my options look slim unless I want to put the burner in an enclosure which from what I've seen looks to be another $50-$70 so it might end up being just as much or more.
