I'm looking to upgrade the SSD in my PC, but I'm not entirely familiar with the other components. Here's a link to my current setup: https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/list/DLpHLc. Also, I'm considering this SSD: https://nz.pcpartpicker.com/product/chzhP6/crucial-p3-plus-1-tb-m2-2280-nvme-solid-state-drive-ct1000p3psssd8. Can anyone help me determine if it's suitable or suggest alternatives?

You should check how old your other components are. That motherboard only supports PCIe 2.0 x2 SSDs, while most are now PCIe 4.0 x4. If your PC is that outdated, you might want to consider building a new one instead, unless you're just updating for nostalgia or storage needs.
I'm not sure about the age of the other parts. We're trying to keep costs down since my partner doesn't really play demanding games. Any suggestions? I'm open to upgrading later.
