I am predominantly a console gamer but I am looking into buying a gaming pc for single player and pc exclusive games. I'd be running games in the future such as The Witcher 3, Fortnite, Dragon Age Inquisition, etc. I will still be a main console gamer so I don't want anything that is over the top. I just want a good, reliable pc that will be able to play future games smoothly on high graphics. I will buy the parts as I have a few local stores able to build it. I will be running it on a 1920x1080 monitor. Case doesn't need to look fancy at all. My budget is no more than 1500, but I'd prefer it to be as cheap as possible (obviously lol) I have been doing a lot of research and I still will be, but I need help. Thanks!

If The Witcher 3 is anything like what we saw a couple of years ago from The Witcher 2, it's going to be a pretty tough game to run at good settings. This should be able to get you at least medium settings on that game.
