New Gaming PC Build- ($1000)

Hi! I have tried over and over to read/understand through various guides how to build a PC. I just cannot understand how you pick parts and determine what is vs isn't worth it. Maybe my brain is too smooth but there are SO many brands. I usually game on my partner's Corsair Vengeance prebuilt and I really enjoy it. I play a lot of Marvel Rivals, Baldur's Gate, co-ops like Peak, etc. My main issue that I've run into is constantly running out of storage space with 2TBs of memory. If my budget is unrealistic for what I want please let me know! I was hoping to score some deals with Amazon Prime day.

• New build or upgrade?

Brand new, I have nothing

• Existing parts/monitors to reuse? (List with models/links)

No

• PC purpose? (Gaming, editing, etc. List apps/games)

Exclusively gaming/discord

• Purchase country? Near Micro Center?

USA, near a Micro Center

• Monitors needed? (Number, size, resolution, refresh rate)

I would like one that looks good for gaming. Second can be cheaper if they match in size, it would just be for discord/movies while gaming

• Budget range? (Include tax considerations)

Ideally around $1000, can be up to $1200

• WiFi or wired connection?

Wifi

• Size/noise constraints?

As long as it doesn't sound like a jet plane I don't really mind sound, size wise no constraint.

• Color/lighting preferences?

No lighting necessary

• Any other specific needs?

Nope!
