Hi everyone:

I am building a new gaming rig, with around a 2000 dollar budget. I want 2 monitors since this will be a streaming rig. I will need the motherboard to have wifi on it, because of any emergencies.

I already have the monitors, the ssd. Need everything else.

I went with a budget card as GPU prices are insane currently, use the 1050 ti until prices come back down then grab something substantially better. And once prices comes back down you won't lose much when selling the 1050 ti.
