Hello guys!

I need some help and opinions on my next pc parts for my gaming system!
I want the pc to handle all the games at highest settings with the best fps possible.

The stuff i need is a CPU, Ram, motherboard and a cooler.

My budget is 1000 USD and i'm looking for the best parts for the buck.

Pc specs:
Gtx 1080 FTW
16gb ddr3
Amd fx 9590
Corsair Crystal 460 RGB
130 mm Cooler master.
4x corsair fans

Regards, Emil Lundberg

I would take that $1000 and build a new system around the GTX 1080. The FX-9590 is no doubt bottlenecking the gfx card most of the time. Also, get a 520W (or greater) PSU. The 460W won't last long once the 1080 can run at max load.

Sorry if i wasn't being clear, the 460 is a computer case made by Corsair and i got a 850 w powersupply. I do know that the cpu is bottlenecking and that's why i need help getting a new system. Thanks.

The 8700k is the pinnacle so no need whatsoever to spend more
