I needed a fast and powerful workstation with a big screen for multi-tabling online poker but decided to go a little further so I made sure it will be able to play games maxed out on 1440p too for quite a while. This is a huge upgrade from my laptop which is probably worth less than 400$ now
Really excited about it and I wanted some feedback, so here it is:

I'm not rich by any means but I had 6000$ in my poker account (started with 50$) so decided to reward myself for my efforts. I've been researching and asking advice for a week now and I'm glad I did because it'll be worth it.
So yeah, all comments are welcome. =)
PS: Shoutout to Victorion and Suzuki because they've been the most helpful
