This will be a gaming build. Right now on my current PC which I built in 2013-2014 (i5 3570k & 760 GTX) I'm having trouble playing Forza Horizon 3 at 1080p lowest settings possible. I plan on getting Forza Horizon 4. Also, I plan on getting a 1440p monitor w/144hz refresh rate and possibly 4K in the future.
Right now this build underneath is about $500 more than what I want to spend. Preferably I want to keep the build no more than $2000 but I don't think that's going to happen. I think I can skimp on the case a bit for sure but I want to keep a RGB theme. My current case Coolermaster HAF 912 is pretty boring so I'm excited to get a windowed case. I'm wondering if I should go with a i5 8600k as well instead of the i7 to save a little. Please leave some tips. Thanks.
