I figured I’d ask on here since you guys are resourceful.

current build is :


-ASRock Z75 Pro3 Motherboard
-Intel i5-3570K with Hyper 212
-G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB DDR3 RAM
-ASUS GTX970 STRIX
-Samsung 850 Evo 500gb SSD and 500gb HDD
-SeaSonic M12II Bronze 620W
-BenQ 1080 144hz 24” monitor.

I’d like to build a new PC which is primarily gaming. I don’t do much else on my PC besides leaving open 75 chrome tabs like a moron haha. I might get into streaming so that can be kept in mind. I’m gonna sell my old PC and monitor for 400$ to someone. Tho I’m taking out my SSD. I’d like to keep the whole build probably around 1500$ with a monitor. I want a 1440p 144hz 27” monitor. I was gonna use the 400$ to put towards that since I know it’d run me 450-600$ prolly. So I was thinking like 1250$ or so part wise and the monitor for around 1500$ but under 1700$.

Case wise I’m not picky. Tho I prefer black. Black and red is usually what I go to. But black white it’s not a priority really. I’m open to anything. Just want it run nicely and not sound like a jet engine.

I’ll be building it in the next 3 weeks to get the money together from all my overtime coming up. Lemme see what you got. Thanks!
Edit : Forgot to add. I’m in US. NJ

Game wise I play everything really. I’d like to run RDR2 nicely tho. Just trying to future proof a little bit and my current build isn’t gonna cut it.
