Howdy, First time on here/posting.
Recently I been noticing that my current 2012 gaming pc is starting to fail, I think my CPU is fried or something. Well anyways, I was thinking about building a new PC. My Birthday is coming up and I have $1000 to spend on new parts. I was wondering if yall (those who are more techy than me) could help me with a new build.
This is what im currently rocking:
CPU: AMD A10-5800k
RAM: 2x 4GB DDR3 (cant remember exactly)
GPU: GTX 970 4gig OC
HDD: 3x 1TB WD Blue (will format again for new PC)
MB: MSI FM2-A75MA-E35
PSU: Corsair CX600
Case: NZXT Source 210 Elite White Steel ATX mid tower

I would like to keep my GPU, since i just bought it about 2 weeks ago. Something that wont bottleneck my GPU, and I would like to keep my case if possible. But yeah...Can anyone help me make a new pc, I mostly use it for gaming/video editing, and 3D rending. Dont like anything water cooled. Prefer classic fans.
P.S. A Video if you find one, would be nice if you link it here. Thanks again community PC masterrace!!!
