Approximate Purchase Date: Before the end of 2017.
Budget Range: $2000 I would consider pre-built machines, but I am comfortable building my own from the case, up.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: This system will be used for gaming. Other functions are secondary.
Are you buying a monitor: I will need a monitor, or maybe even as many as three. No smaller than 20' HD. The bigger the better. Maximum resolutions. Upgrade-able to VR later when the gear becomes more reasonably priced.
Parts to Upgrade: Starting from scratch. But I want something that will allow upgrading for as long as possible.
Do you need to buy OS: Yes. Win 10 Home is okay. Pro would be better.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I am not fixated on any site in particular.
Location: Rockford, Michigan, USA
Parts Preferences: I would prefer Intel chip sets and NVidia graphics but would consider others
Overclocking: Maybe, but not critical.
SLI or Crossfire: I would like the option available, but it may be beyond the initial budget.
Your Monitor Resolution: The best I can get within the budget. VR support would be nice too, though I am skipping the first few generations of VR and waiting for better products and prices.
Additional Comments: Plenty of wattage in the power supply. 1000w maximum should be more than enough. I want the motherboard to be extremely upgrade-able. Lights and cosmetics are an unnecessary expense. Air cooled is fine, you additional cooling systems would be great.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Because it's WAAAAY over due.
