Hey! Not to say that one’s help is less than others, but I would greatly appreciate if only people that are experts in gaming-rig-building tell me their opinion so I can be lead towards the best solution quickly. What I’d want to do is build a gaming rig. However, I have a lot of doubts, uncertainties, lack of expirience, and knowledge. What’s the right monitor for this card not to tear, does the resolution make a great diference, what does the GPU horpower have to do with the monitor refreshrate and resolution, which GPU/CPU is best, which on-board audio/card is best and so on. And because of all this I’m really tired and starting to consider just buying a PS4 and a Widows laptop instead, but there are tons of exclusive titles for PC that I’d love to play that I know a laptop couldn’t handle the way I’d want it. And so I've read quite a few things about what's needed, and I have about most of the basic understanding of a PC down as well as what is needed for a good gaming rig (I believe :D). Another problem that I have is that I'm blowing my budget without the need to do so :( And I really don’t understand what I exactly do/don’t need to beat down the price but hto have the eye candy that I want so badly :D I've selected all the hardware and the software for my system and I'm getting a price of about 2000 dollars which is the very top of how much I'm willing to pay, since I have about 300 dollars left afterwards to buy any sort of games and anything else I’d want. And that's quite some money for me to spend since I don't work yet :D So I'd want to go below that price point. However, I'd want a system that could run, for example, Crysis 3 (I believe it's the game that requires the most GPU horsepower) at 40+ FPS and any other future game at atleats 60 FPS with medium settings. I'd also wouldn't want to have to upgrade the system for the next 3 years tops and to have as small amounts of tearing and stuttering as possible. I'd want a resolution of 1920 by 1080 at least. Estethics is sometjing I love. I’d love to have a system with all the cables nicely sleeved and every color matching, but I’m guessing this can’t really be achieved with the money I have :( Either way, in the end I just want a good gaming experience. If anyone is interested why the price is 2000 dollars ask me in the anwsers and I’ll post it up. Also, I haven’t covered quite a few things I believe, but if anything ask away. Any help is greatley appriciated! Thank you!

Every part that is needed to have a functioning gaming rig is included in the price (I believe :D). I believe the system would look very nice with the parts I have picked. Maybe not color matched, but nice :D. However, my priorities are not esthetics, I can work on that after I get a job. I live in NJ.
