[SOLVED] Upgrade Advice - New Builder - go easy on me.

[msollars]

Current system stuck together 7-8 years ago......from friends old parts:

I7 960
GTX 460
8gb ddr3 ram
x58 ftw3 mobo
Corsair Carbide 200R case


New Questions -
In looking up the components i have....most are 9-10 years old. Failed power supply and so so gaming performance has me thinking of upgrading.

1. Am i right in assuming i should upgrade components? Going to start editing some 4k video of my kids sporting events, i'd really like to try flight sim 2020 sometime (liked the old ones)
2. I'm new to all of this but have been doing some reading. Trying different calculators to avoid bottle necking with components i'm not familiar with. I'd love to use the same case, (Corsair carbide 200R) which may or may not work. I also understand i may want to upgrade everything else. I'm also interested in a new 27 monitor. I'm red green colorblind, so sharpness and motion are more important than perfect color recreation. would like something that 4k video and games looks nice on. (less $ the better though)

Budget (not including monitor should be under 1200......budget including monitor under 1500.
Any help is welcomed.
Thank you all in advance.
Matt

Is there a 2x16gb that you recommend. I'll be doing some video editing and was under the impression that 32 would serve me better for that....even though 16 is fine for gaming only.

thanks.
