Budget:
i would be financing it because its easy and allows to make payments so i can get something better. I would say around 1500-2k. Monitor and other things would cost me another 500ish.

Expectations:
I want this setup to run FPS gaming smoothly. Games like PUBG, Battlefield, COD, some RPG's. I want to be able to stream one day, not anytime soon but one day. i want to be able to have a big game library.I also expect it to be quite and awesome looking.

Usage:
I do have a full-time job. This rig would mainly be for gaming but some photo editing in the future. Also running normal work applications like Microsoft.

Special Needs:
The most important thing is where the computer will be can get very hot at times, specially during the day. Also a quite system would be much preferred.

Specifications:
One of my friends already recommended the Apollo build at Better i believe. Again i know it can be very expensive but this is a feeler rig to see if i like it.

Hey thanks for the response. Ya the fan might not be able to keep the system cool. My other concern is would the graphics card be enough to handle PUBG, Battlefield, a few RPGs games of that nature?

Thanks again!

On very high resolution

I would go 1070 and keep rest

If it's too over budget maybe drop cooling down 1 level
Or lose bling , save you $100.00
But promise you , you'll be happier with it.

For sure I agree. I have had friends tell me the 1070 is def a must. If it means going budget then it's ok. I don't care about the bling very much haha

Thanks again!
