Advice on components

[Ctdsoccer]

Want a state of the art gaming computer that I don't want to update for a while, also this is a little on the expensive side, any advice would be appreciated, I have been out of the game for 10 years.

Thanks.

That seems a bit expensive. Are you comfortable enough assembling parts yourself if you bought the parts separately? Buying them individually and building your own I think would save quite a bit.

Do you have any parts already like a monitor or anything and if so what screen resolution and refresh rate? Ie, 60hz monitor at 1080p, 60hz 1440p, 144hz 1080p? The 1080 is a nice gpu for sure but I'm wondering since the pricing says +418. $418 more than what starting price because the gtx 1080 is a $650 gpu. $420 is more the price of a 1070 which is also a nice gpu and more balanced for 1080p or even 1440p.

Are you planning to get into VR? (I don't see a vr headset or anything). 32gb of ram is overkill for a gaming pc and you can save some money there going with 8gb or at most, 16gb for a gaming pc. Internal usb 3.0 hub for an extra $25 isn't needed unless you have some sort of special requirements.

Thanks for the very good advice, no monitor haven't decided if I want to get a 4K hence the gpu,
I have priced them out separately, not hugely comfortable assembling myself and huge believer in paying professionals to do their job
your are right on the ram definelty can go less on that, and upgrade later on if needed
Yes the gpu price was 699, +418 is off the base I customized
Really thinking future here and work off this base later down the road
I read some things require USB 3.0, but can probably get rid of it for my situation

Which things do you think will need usb 3.0 internally requiring the hub? The motherboard itself has 3x usb 3.0 ports on the rear of the board (back of the pc case) along with 2x 3.0 usb headers internally for connecting the front usb ports to for the case's front usb ports. That will give you usb 3.0 front and rear for connecting devices to. If you are looking at something that needs extra usb 3.0 ports I'm not downing it, just trying to save you from buying additional things that come with the motherboard to begin with.

The 1080 makes more sense if you're considering 1440p or 4k.

I think even 16gb will be plenty for current/future gaming as well as supporting heavy multitasking. I don't see any glaring mistakes, good cpu, graphics card, quality power supply with enough power for the system. Nice case.

Awesome thanks again

I see a bunch of little addons that add up, and are NOT required.
Ultra Enhanced Packaging Solution - $20
Mouse mat - $14
PRO_WIRING - $19
Fan mounts - $9
Internal 4 port hub - $25

That's about $100 in unnecessary goop.

And then we get to the legendary CyberPower assembly (non)quality.

Thanks yes I am getting rid of most of that, and also really considering assembling myself, I have been pricing out the main components and have found it just might be worth the time, but time is money as well and this is pretty convenient, even if there is some technical fault on their end
