Hi everyone, I'm looking to buy a gaming PC but have no knowledge of the components and what would be best for me. I will be developing games as well as playing them. This would include creating 2D art using photoshop, Coding, using unreal engine and unity mainly. Eventually I would be using 3d max to create 3D models. I want something that I could also upgrade later on. I'll be playing games such as fortnight, battlefield and open world games such as Witcher 3.

What would you recommend? my budget including dual screen monitors would be around 1600/1700ish..Thanks!
 
Something like this should be good...
