I'm looking to upgrade anything that would be the best two upgrades possible maybe even three. I don't really care much about price as long as I'm not putting over $1,500 into my computer.

I don't remember how to get that whole box that shows all my specs all I remember is how to get to the systems page and the few short areas around that.

Overall what I'm looking for in the upgrade is pretty much the best...VR/3D whatever is necessary to be the best within a reasonable price range which I'm sure $1,500 is pretty reasonable enough. I do have a 3D monitor and three total monitors so that's one slight help, I guess. haha

Thank you for the extremely amazing help that you provide for me, in advance.

Also one quick last note. Last time I upgraded my motherboard and cpu I also got win8/8.1 which also last gave me a free win10. I was unable to upgrade to win10 because for some odd reason, and my computer still does it, after a few times of turning off/on my computer it won't complete bios and it will just sit at the first screen that pops up.

I've been doing a 'work around' by unplugging the computer at that point and pressing power again and it works perfectly fine. It's whenever my computer either resets or is turned off and on properly more than twice but less than four times it does that screen.

I also have my keyboard mouse and headset that light up. Whenever my computer does that screen all three of those don't light up. It's always at the same time that they don't work. if the three light up the computer will turn on and if they don't then the computer get stuck.

Wasn't really quick but yeah I have no clue why it's doing that; I have tried updating bios and all that silliness but also it was like a 2015 or whatever year I bought it new.

If more information is needed I'll provide anything for both subjects. Also if that's completely like a bios problem I can make a new post in that section and edit this so its not here. Thank you Thank you

So $1500 budget, and you already have a good CPU for gaming, 3 monitors, and tons of storage. I would suggest SLI GTX 1080's, an EVGA SuperNova 1000W PSU, and 16GB DDR3. You really don't need anything else at this point.

I don't mean to build a new pc I'm just looking to upgrade from what parts I have. If I found the right one "dxdiag" is the chart I was looking for. There might be another one with more details I don't remember.
