What is the best prebuilt Gaming Desktop for 2,500-3,000 dollars and should it Use 1 x 1080 GTX or 2x 1070 sli graphic cards for 4k and high fps
 
Solution
Don't really need to go much over 2K to have amazing gaming rig.
If you have something like this you will be playing for years to come using this config.

In the future if you need more horse power on the GPU you just add a second 1080 in SLI way cheaper than it is today and keep on kicking ;)
Here is 3K build:

Single GTX1080 will not last long at 4K check the benchmarks it is hardly maintaining 60fps in some games at max settings.
That PSU is no good
