Hey people of Toms Hardware,
I am looking to build a new PC, I want to buy the best parts possible to start with so I do not have to upgrade as quickly, I will still upgrade it, but not for a while after I built it preferably anyway, I used the template provided in the sticky, so take a look below for the specs I have picked already and what the PC will be for. Thanks in advance.
