Community Opinion on PC Build

Posted by TheBitterBird@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 4 comments

Hi everyone! I’m from Colorado and building a PC. This isn’t my first time, but it has been over ten years.

My main use will be gaming, and I’d like to get into 4K or get the most out of 1440p. I tend to be a bit of a gearhead, and since I’m a DINK, I’m willing to splurge a little on this build. I’d also really appreciate help choosing a monitor (or two). Is there anything you would change or replace in my current build?

Budget is between $3500-$4500
