Hello everyone!

I currently have a Falcon Northwest PC and am looking to upgrade to something that can handle any game maxed at 4k + without being bottle necked by either PC or GPUs. Budget of $5000 is on the high end of what I'd like to pay.

I honestly would rather get per-built to avoid the hassle but if somebody can recommend a significantly better custom built one and point me in the direction of some guides for building, I'd consider custom as well.

Below are the specs for my current PC:

Thank you for the quick response. Games still seem laggy running at 4k. Is it possible that my CPU is slowing me down? Is there anything that I could upgrade it to and see some increase in performance?
