Hello everyone, I am looking for a new PC gaming build I would like to game at 4k at max settings but if I cannot do that with this budget 1440p is fine. I need basically everything as my old PC and components are 7+ years old. If you think I should wait for any upcoming deals or major suspected price drops I would be fine with that. I typically build a PC and try to use it for as long as possible of course not opposed to doing upgrades along the way.
I prefer less RGB and quietness a plus if possible with that said I don't want an AIO unless you really recommend it. In my experience air cooling is superior at keeping temps but I don't build PCs all that often to really have the statics to compare.
Approximate Purchase Date: Between now and 2 weeks.
Budget Range: $3000
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming , Work station mostly for side gigs nothing too resource intensive. Web / video.
Are you buying a monitor: Yes - not have any preferences really w/e would work best for 4k and a decent refresh rate bang for buck is what I typically go for. Might just use my old monitor as a 2nd monitor its a samsung 24" 1080p.
Parts to Upgrade: All
Do you need to buy OS: Yes win 10 or 11 don't really care.
Please note that if you're using an OEM license of Windows, you will need a new one when buying a new motherboard.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Any - I am USA based.
Location: Las Vegas, Nevada - no micro centers around me.
Parts Preferences: Best for gaming.
Overclocking: Not at first only would do it if needed as system ages.
SLI or Crossfire: NO
Your Monitor Resolution: Currently using 24" Samsung 1080p I know its super old so w/e is most preferred now a days for 4k or 1440p gaming.
Additional Comments: Anti RGB is a plus and quiet components if they aren't too expensive.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Gaming PC is 7 years old (i5 4690k, 1070 TI)
Looking to finally update and play newer games at max settings. Ark survival evolved, BG3, POE2, etc... I game hop a lot and play most games that are new or just came out.
Currently using an IKEA alex drawer desk setup which I love. If you have any decent monitor setup tips for it that would be greatly appreciated. Not sure if I should wall mount it or some boomarm or desk etc...
Thanks in advance if I missed anything let me know.
