Looking for a ground up system build. I'm a technical person, but not able to keep up on all of the day to day changes in the consumer industry, so my knowledge is pretty much what I gleaned from reading articles/reviews/guides on Toms. I'll put what I'm looking to accomplish, and then put what I pieced together myself on pcpartpicker.
Goal: Every Day use. Wife is in school, I do work occasionally on it, but 80% of the time it'll be used for gaming. I'm not a great gamer, but it is my free time hobby, so either I play on the PC or one of my consoles for enjoyment. Game types on the PC range from Shooters to strategy, to fun games (Golf with Friends). Don't do sports games on here unless you count rocket league.
Parts Needed: Everything
Monitor Needed: Yes. Currently using 2 24 in 8 year old monitors
Price Point: Justifiable. Not looking for 500, not looking for 4,000 either. Just want something that will last me 5 years with the occasional part swap out if needed. Don't think I need 4k for the monitor/s I liked what I read about the ViewSonic XG360R-C, but am open to all sorts of ideas. I enjoy a good looking build with RGB.
Here's what I pieced together on PCPARTPICKER. Will likely use NewEgg as my vendor.
