Budget:
[~$6,500]

Expectations:
[Double monitor (1 for high end gaming, the other for off-screen items), Will most likely be purchasing a monitor with G-sync to go with (if ya'll recommend that) and I would like to be able to game at max settings with zero issues for as long as possible without upgrading in the future.]

Usage:
[High end gaming/some streaming]

Special Needs:
I also have a 1 TB SSD and 3TB mechanical I plan on installing when I receive it, so I'm hoping this set up allows that with no issues. Also, will there be any downside to installing another m.2? such as sharing bandwidth or any other issues.

Saved Ticket #: 2085354

As seen above, any help/advice would be greatly appreciated! Trying to maximize my money as I still have to buy a monitor upgrade on top of this plus the freight cost. This is my second DS product, first was a desktop in 2008 or 2009, and last was a laptop in 2014. Great experiences so far!

Builds look good to me.   You don’t need more than an 750watt, 850 watt max psu but not much savings changing it, so depends how tight the budget.

The motherboard accommodates 2x m.2, so can’t add a 3rd.

With water cooling the added overclock to put the clock speed on all cores instead of Turbo stepped overclock, is a good pick.

The graphics card depends on monitor resolution.    If you game on a 1080p then a 2080 is plenty, even 2070. I would go 2080 minimum to match your awesome Aventum build.
