Since I'm not familiar with building PC's I just wanted to get some advice so I can avoid wasting money. Are there any tradeoffs I should make in my current system? Is anything "overkill"? I am least confident about my decision for a monitor and cooling system.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: (e.g. I'm having trouble running game X or my PSU broke)
I just moved and I don't have a desktop PC. My boss is also going to let me start working from home, so I need a nice battlestation.
Include a list of any parts you have already selected with descriptively labeled links for parts. Please do not post only links.
My current build is here https://pcpartpicker.com/list/czFh4C. I have not officially purchased anything yet so feel free to suggest any change you see fit.
Thanks in advance!
