Building my first gaming computer

[ShadowlessKhan]

Hello everyone. I have gotten tired of playing my games on lowest graphics and have been saving money so I have almost $4,000 to spend on a computer. Ok before I really get into this I do want to say I know a little about computers, my first computer was a 33mhz with the good old turbo button, but haven't kept up on what is out there. I want this to be a monster of a computer that is build for gaming. I have had a few bad experiences with overclocking so I am not looking into doing it with anything, even if I go with watch cooling. I am going to start streaming again once I get my new computer so I need something that can handle multiple applications with no problem. I hope you guys can help me and give me some advice on what to build and make sure everything goes with everything. I told my wife that I would only order a few things at once because otherwise she would freak out on me and as some of you guys know, a happy wife makes a happy life

I want to start with the motherboard and build around that so feel free to be creative. From what I have been able to find the ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z is very nice but I want the best of the best and I know with DDR4 and all that being so much better I should wait but I am so impatient and am so tired of playing my games on lowest settings. I dont care if its Intel or ASUS but I want the best of the best but again I dont want to overclock anything.

If you guys can help me build my dream gaming computer I would truly appreciate it. Thank you very much.

Considering that you came to the forums, then you really don't want build a computer, you want us to build it for you... or not?
