Building up a new system, will be for playing games, I do plan on getting a VR setup going down the road.
This is what I have figured might work together so far, https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/wrpLLD
I probably need a pcie extension cable, as i'v read that the one with that case is sometimes not there or not that great, if someone knows of something that would fit the white/silver look i'm going for. I also would prefer a white or silver power supply, but don't know where to find that, so i just have the g3 in there, maybe i'll wrap it in aluminium foil.
to answer the questions:
1. Budget & Location
Not over $4000, Canada
2. Aim
Playing games while streaming as an afterthought, and probably running whatever early access survival crafting flavour of the month server in the background.
3. Monitors
2-4? 2 for sure, but i was reading about a few mods i might try down the road with transparent displays and raspi displays
4. Peripherals
A headset in the $100 range with a great mic.
5. Why are you upgrading?
