So I'm doing my first custom computer build that I would like to last me the next 3 or 4 years. These are the components I've picked so far. Does it look good to you or is there anything I can improve on. Any solutions or answers are greatly appreciated. All the parts I've found on Amazon and the total came to around 3,100$. I'm also hoping the build I have can play every game on the market right now on ultra with no lag at all. Max Budget is 3,500$! I'm looking for a water cooled cpu. I want to be able to game and maybe record some games at high fps. I didnt add it but in my 3200$ budget I already had a keyboard picked out and I own a gaming mouse already.

aaaa well i prefer the ASUS its much better for playing n stuff (IT IS BETTER THEN BENQ)
your MAX. budget is 3500 and the build with the 3 monitors is 3533$
So if you don't want to go max budget you could just remove one of the three monitors

No, like in the total 3200$, that does include the 2nd monitor. For people suggesting builds which I appreciate the help, Im just saying i would like 2 or 3 if possible. But the original build has the 2 monitors including in my price.

Thank you for the recommended build, Yeah, I wanted 2 or 3 monitors because I would like to stream and record and having a second monitor makes it so much easier. I might just use 2 of the original monitors you put down instead of the 3, 24 inch ones. Again thank you for the help.
