Speccing a gaming PC for the first time since 2013, feedback wanted!
###Build Help/Ready:
Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)
Yes, I have.
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
This is intended for gaming pretty much exclusively. I'm not playing the most graphical games but I want the machine ready to handle those as needed.
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings)
I mainly play processor-heavy games like EU4 or Stellaris, so I'm hoping that the beefier processor will get those running smoothly and speedily throughout. I want to get solid 1440p (and eventually get to 4k) on anything I play, and make the most of my 144hz monitor when I do play a handful of more graphically intensive games like heavily modded Skyrim. Down the road a little bit I want to get into VR gaming, eyeballing Half-Life Alyx. Also I want to future proof. Ideally I won't do more than maybe a round of 4k upgrades until sometime after 2025.
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
I could go a bit higher, say $2500, if there were better components for what I'm looking to do.
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
US, near Portland, Oregon.
Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please). Consider formatting your parts list. Don't ask to be spoonfed a build (read the rules!).
