your build is perfect. but there's some cpu's and gpu's will be released sooner. if you dont wanna wait this build is amazing and capable of handling ur applications in that resolution.

Figure there's always new stuff right around the corner but I felt confident this build should last awhile. Might have to find a similar but different choice of RAM since supply seems to be low on that one but otherwise looks good. Thank you!
