So I've been editing this list for some time and now I've changed it a lot. What do you guys think? Should I change anything else? I just wanna make sure I have a good list cause this thing is extremely expensive as you can see haha. The new build is below, but I also have the original build here: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/f7YVJ8

I'm going to be using this computer for a lot of things. VR, Normal AAA gaming, and a lot of video editing once I get into college next year. So yeah I really want a computer that will last and is extremely powerful. Right now my max price ill go is $3000, no more than that.

That EVGA is the G1 line which is based on the FSP design, it wasn't EVGA's best unit. That is the new G1+, but it's still FSP. Their G2 and G3 is based on the Super Flower design and is known for being their best. If you don't get a G2 or G3, the Corsair RMx and SeaSonic should be a better choice than the G1+.

The G1+ is actually a lot better than a lot of PSUs you could have ended up with. But if you're spending all that money, we would rather see you with the best quality.
True. Well, thanks for the help. I'm probably gonna keep changing stuff in the build because again, its a lot of money. I wanna make sure its the best I can get.

Few things updated. Added more Storage and more Memory. It is better to have 2TB SATA drive for storage over second 1TB NVMe drive. Overall high quality build around your budget. Yes it will be lot more silent.

Looks good to me. Thanks for the help! Just out of curiosity though, did you change the graphics card to be able to change other stuff around? I noticed that the graphics card is a little cheaper than the ASUS one.

To be honest I would only spend on STRIX GPU over EVGA Black if I have to prioritize aesthetics. This being more Performance focused build EVGA Black edition is really good. When it comes to quality and performance there is no difference as EVGA Black is very good card. As it is the GPU will not be visible so it really doesn't matter if it packs RGB or not.

Yeah I really don’t care what the computer looks like. Never have. Seems like a waste of time to me if ur gonna spend money on making it look cool.
