Hello guys , I have $3000 AUD equivalent to $2114 USD to spend on a Gaming PC ,I'm not experienced with Gaming PC's and their parts and I don't want to take a risk and buy parts that are not good , I've researched and watched many pc building videos but most of them are very different that's why I want to ask for your help. Please include all of the parts, price and website on where to buy them from if you wish. Thank you very much.

What a refreshing post - someone with a good budget.
No crap parts. Im a pedantic mofo and i have seen, first hand , return rates of equipment.

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/HzycWZ - $3139 (it can be played with though - cheaper case etc)

Samsung 32" 1440p monitor on a 980ti. Ultimate interface & video card. People often neglect the monitor.
250gb SSD - o/s
500gb SSD - gaming & programs
2TB HDD - media storage & playback (movies, music etc)
R5 case - best case on market. Will last many years.

You dont need overclocking. its a minor perf boost that costs a fair bit extra bc you have to get a Z board, a K cpu and an aftermarket cooler.
The i5-6600 is the fastest i5.
$ spent where it counts on ultimate monitor and video card and...

You do not need an i7 for 99% of games.
Over 50% of the budget is going towards the monitor and video card. What you look at and what drives it. The monitor will last you years & years / many builds.

your selected PSU is the bad version. you want the G2 or the GS versions of the supernova series.
