Despite the AI boom driving up prices and making it harder to build a PC today, there are still some good deals floating around. We've just found one from MSI, and it's a bundle that includes a 2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, a 240mm AIO liquid cooler, and a 750W 80+ Gold power supply with native ATX 3.1 compatibility. It's called the "SPATIUM M470 PRO 2TB SSD Refresh Kit," and it's available for just $299 right now, down from $492.
As the name suggests, the bundle includes an MSI Spatium M470 Pro SSD in a 2TB capacity. We've reviewed the non-Pro variant of this drive and found it adequate. This "Pro" model is actually DRAM-less but still features sequential read speeds up to 6,000 MB/s and write speeds up to 5,000 MB/s, with up to 640 TBW of endurance. The Phison E27T controller powers it and comes with a 5-year warranty.
Next up, there's a MAG CoreLiquid A13 240mm AIO part of the kit, too. It's a pretty run-of-the-mill liquid cooler that supports recent CPU families. It has ARGB fans and subtle lighting on the pump block, with a pretty minimal overall design. The pump speed can be modulated between 300 RPM and 3,800 RPM, with the fans reaching up to 200 RPM, pushing up to 62.6 CFM of airflow. We found the CoreLiquid A13 to be a decent option in our review — nothing special, but it can definitely get the job done.
Lastly, you'll also get the MAG A750GLS power supply in the bundle; it's a 750W PCIe 5.0 unit with an 80+ Gold rating. That means it comes with a native 16-pin connector to power the hungriest GPUs, and the cable has a yellow end that can help identify loose connections. A 10-year warranty backs the A750GLS and comes with enough sleeved cables to cover all your needs. It's also a well-reviewed model in the community.
All in all, you're building a solid base with these components that can help make the hunt for more important parts, such as the GPU and memory, easier. For just $299 on the MSI Store right now, it doesn't get much better than this. Even if you were to go for a cheaper cooler and SSD on its own and ditch the bundle, it would cost you around $400 to source the parts individually, so don't miss out on this deal!
