System Usage from Most to Least Important: (e.g.: Folding@Home, gaming, surfing the internet, watching movies)
Gaming, video rendering, adobe programs, game development, graphic design, etc.

Best Buy (I have Totaltech and an employee discount, microcenter is far in case i need repairs/warranty exchanges)

Parts Preferences: by brand or type (e.g.: I would like to upgrade to Intel CPU)
Intel

Your Monitor Resolution: (e.g.: 1024x768, 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1600x1200, 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1200 or if you're upgrading please state what you'd want to get)
N/A
Additional Comments: (e.g.: Need to have a window and lots of bling, I would like a quiet PC. Please also list specific software or games you're using)
Preferably a quiet pc. Case doesn't need space for 3.5 hdds or 2.5 ssds. Want an AIO that's 240, 360, or 420 mm.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: (e.g. I'm having trouble running game X or my PSU broke)
My motherboard is a z270, it's time to upgrade to z790 (looking at this one https://www.bestbuy.com/site/asus-p...3-2-intel-motherboard/6523719.p?skuId=6523719)
Also, i will go with the i7 13700K or 13700, I did want the KF or F, but it's probably not worth it if i do have gpu issues.
