Hey, i want to make a custom pc for gaming but i dont really know what parts to get. I want to get the best quality parts (price doesn't really matter as long as product is best quality). So if you guys could help me choose all the parts, that would be awesome, thanks.

a true 6 core intel will run you around 1000$ for the CPU alone, but will be the best CPU on the market that makes sense for gaming too. Some xeons are six core and the i7 4690X mentioned above is a above and beyond what most people need out of a computer.

2 780ti in SLI should be the best you need for single monitor gaming, make sure the motherboard is high end too so it SLIs properly.

a GOOD 1000W or more power supply from these brands: Seasonic, Antec, XFX, Corsair AX line (NOT; VS RS CX)

4 x 4 GB 1866 Mhz RAM at CAS 9 or lower will be great. Corsair and kingston make good ram, G skills are pretty good too.

Run the operating system (windows 7 i recommend) from an solid state hard drive on its own, maybe a 60GB or smaller for...

I don't really have a budget, I'm willing to spend as much as it takes to get the best parts

Run the operating system (windows 7 i recommend) from an solid state hard drive on its own, maybe a 60GB or smaller for just that, and run the rest from other drives (regular Terabyte drives or more solid state drives for MAXIMUM read write operations (i,e copy and pasting large file will be lightning fast between drives as well as launching applications, games wont run faster but they will LOAD faster )

invest in a GOOD monitor with 14K resolution and high refresh rate (120hz)
