I am so happy that i have managed to save money for my first rig which i am going to build myself...kindly help me with the specs within 5000 dollars and keep in mind that i already have 55 inch 4K UHD tv...so i dont need monitor...it will be very kind of you all to give me best specs
 
Something like this should be pretty dope for your 4k experience...

Also, check the connections of the TV, we'll need to know particularly if it has a Display Port connection.
That's a LOT of cash :) I'll assume it's US Dollars?
Apart from gaming, what else do you intend to use the system for?
Would you like a compact setup, or are you OK with a big case?
I'll guess you want it to be quiet, but can you handle a custom water cooling loop as well as the main build?
 
Waow, nice budget you got there :

Few words

Intel's 8th gen K-series Core i7 as a CPU, picked the best/biggest Corsair AIO to cool it. You can mount the 360mm rad as top exhaust or front intake,
specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/hydro-series-h150i-pro-rgb-360mm-liquid-cpu-cooler

With the budget of yours, i picked the best MoBo from MSI which has plethora of features, including lots of RGB LEDs,
specs: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/Z370-GODLIKE-GAMING

To match the MoBo RGB LEDs, put in 32GB of Corsair Vengeance RGB 3000 Mhz RAM which is more than enough for any tasks you throw at it,
specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/vengeance-rgb-32gb-4-x-8gb-ddr4-dram-3000mhz-c15-memory-kit-cmr32gx4m4c3000c15

At this price point, forget slow HDDs and SATA SSDs. To store all your data, i put in 3x 1TB Samsung 960 Evo M.2 NVMe SSDs, making the total storage space 3TB. All 3x NMVe SSDs mount directly to your MoBo to keep the build's look pristine,
specs: https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/ssd-960-evo-m-2-1tb-mz-v6e1t0bw/

For GPU, went with Asus GTX 1080 Ti STRIX GAMING which is the best GPU to be used for 4K,
specs: https://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/ROG-STRIX-GTX1080TI-11G-GAMING/

To see from afar that you got plenty for your money, i picked an ATX full-tower case for your build. Corsair 780T is big enough case to fit all your hardware while providing a premium look,
specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/graphite-series-780t-full-tower-pc-case

Only the best PSU money can buy at current date deserves to power all that hardware, so put it Seasonic PRIME 750 80+ Titanium PSU,
specs: https://seasonic.com/prime-titanium
review: http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story&reid=481
(My Skylake build is also powered by PRIME 80+ Titanium PSU but mine is 650w, full specs with pics in my sig.)

To complete the RGB LED look of the build, i included 3x Corsair LL120 and 3x Corsair LL140 fans. 120mm fans are for replacing stock fans on the rad while 140mm fans are for replacing the case's stock fans,
specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cooling/ll-series-fans
video review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZ8acay59cY

I also added Corsair mechanical RGB KB, Corsair RGB mouse and Corsair RGB headset that you can sync with Corsair LL-series fans and Corsair AIO to complete the RGB setup of your PC.
KB specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-eu/strafe-rgb-mechanical-gaming-keyboard-cherry-mx-silent-eu
mouse specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-eu/sabre-rgb-gaming-mouse
headset specs: http://www.corsair.com/en-eu/void-pro-rgb-usb-premium-gaming-headset-with-dolby-headphone-7-1-carbon-eu

Note: PC case, KB, mouse and headset are personal choices and feel free to replace them with the ones you like the most.
(I also have Corsair Strafe RGB, Corsair Sabre RGB and Corsair Void Pro RGB in use with my Skylake build.)
 



The logic of your builds fails me at times. Not saying its bad in any way, but how is a little more RGB going to improve performance???
Also the parts you have listed, for eg; 3 different SSD, 32gb RAM, i mean, are these really necessary??? No point in wasting money just because he has it.
Dont take it as a critical view, just trying to understand the logic.

Also, that card is out of stock.
 

RGB is for the eyecandy and not performance. And just because you don't like RGB LEDs and prefer your PC to be plain doesn't mean everybody should share your taste. Some people like their PC to be fancy.

As far as SSDs go, those aren't different. Your build suggestion contains 2x different SSDs while mine has same SSD times 3.

While for gaming, 32GB of RAM is more than enough and then some, it isn't so with production work (e.g video rendering) what i7-8700K is very capable of doing. Without knowing the main usage of the PC (gaming, production work etc), 32GB of RAM is suggested for video rendering PC while 64GB of RAM would be ideal.

What OP asked was the best builds within $5000 budget and not the cheapest builds. And in my opinion, the Godlike RGB Gaming is the best build within the budget which also includes fully customizable and synchronizable RGB LEDs for eyecandy.

Btw, GPU isn't out of stock. Besides only clicking the pcpp link, take one step further and actually check the OutletPC store to confirm it.

The same can be achieved by above two builds. I dont like my PCs plain either. But just dropping huge $$$ on RGB, doesnt make any sense to me. But thats my opinion.

SSDs are fast anyways, and except for a few R/W specific tasks/apps that benefits from faster I/O, there is hardly any benefit of NVME over SATA, definitely not for gaming. The difference is hardly noticeable in real time.

Btwn, good find with the card. I didnt go that far, imo.
 
Thankyou so much all for your lovely reply...i am really excited and thankyou all for you help....but can you guys tell me what is core i9 is it necessary to buy and titan x pascal whats the difference....i can extend my budget if they r really worth it...and my work is...to designing 3d model for houses...and interiors and also i have a music channel(indian) on youtube where i upload 1080p video but now i want to upload 4k videos....this are my use

There is nothing the 8700k cannot do which the i9 will. In certain scenarios, the extra cores and threads can be helpful, but i dont think you will need that much. For 3d modelling a powerful GPU is more optimal for 3d rendering scenarios and the 1080ti is as good as it can get... https://www.pluralsight.com/blog/film-games/getting-familiar-computer-hardware-terminology-3d-graphics-systems
"When it comes to 3D work, the Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) is a vital piece of hardware to have. In a very basic example, the GPU is essentially the gateway between the computer and what you see on the monitor. The GPU can sometimes get confused with the Central Processing Unit (CPU), which you’ll learn about a little later. However, the GPU is vital for computing different 3D functions, and is the key component for having fast viewport rendering. So this means if you’re modeling in your 3D application and the viewport is running extremely sluggish, a better GPU can be one of the key pieces of hardware to remedy this issue."

Having said that, some 3d modelling environment do benefit from extra cores/threadsm but the 8700k should be enough for that. Now if you want to go for that, your ideal setup should be a Xeon+Quadro build rather than a i7/i9+Gtx build. Even a SLI setup can be optimal if you are going for a GTX build. But then we are talking about absolute pro arena for level playing field.

Now that we know about your workload, you should choose between the below two builds...

Both should perform equally good. Quadro cards are more suitable for compute work like 3d rendering over GTX cards as they have higher calculation accuracy.
Both of these builds can take care of your 4k video projects as well with ease.

Par India may yeh parts zyada mahenga parega. If you are based in US, then it wont be a big hassle.
