Okay, so i'm going to build a gaming desktop for the first time, and i'm looking for some good parts. I've figured out i could save some money by ripping my Acer Predator G3620 apart and taking RAM, DVD-writer and the 1TB Hard Drive and using it in the new build.
(Here's the datasheet of the components in the old desktop)


I'm planning to go triple 24inch monitors, so i'll need graphics thats capable of that. My old acer has 16GB RAM which i'm going to re-use, so heres what parts I'll need:
-GPU
-CPU
-Motherboard
-Power supply (i would like this to be a little higher than what all the parts need so i can upgrade later)
-a SSD (for faster boot times, i'm not a very patient person when it comes to boot times :( )
-for the case, I'm thinking that a CM storm stryker is good, due to it's size, open to suggestions though

Please suggest parts that'll fit which each other

My budget is currently on about $2000 (it's best if its under, but it's possible to go to about $2500 if needed)


Thanks to everyone who helps me! I'm not very skilled in this field, so i'm coming here to ask this epic community for help :)

i don't see any issues.

The Hero iv is an excellent choice. Fills the gap nicely between Formula and Gene series.

You won't be disappointed with that setup.

A single Ti is probably best and will give less problems than sli/cfx solution.

The stryker which pcpartpicker don't have listed is a an excellent choice and i can totally recommend it. Purchasing elsewhere will still be under desired budget.

Also you go to i7 but i don't see the point for a gaming pc.

You go with one 780ti but 2 x GTX780 will blitz any game on three 1080p monitors. R9 290/X CFX is another option but GTXX780 sli is better IMO.

Also, i noticed that the graphic cards doesn't have more than one exit for hdmi. How should i connect triple monitors to that using hdmi? if using one of those extenders, i believe it'll display the exact same on all screens, so i don't know how, help please D:

And also, thanks for all the answers :D
