    Planning on building my first PC. I plan on using it for app development, music recording/editing, and gaming. I want to be able to have a lot of things running at the same time (Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, Unity, AutoCAD, YouTube... etc.) I need to buy everything, including monitors, keyboard and mouse. I'd like to keep it under $2000, but can go a little over if necessary.
    Here is what I am thinking so far:

    I was hoping to get some advice on the motherboard and memory. I'm not really sure which motherboard to get. I'm also curious if it is worth it to buy faster memory and if I do, will it be compatible?
    Let me know if I am forgetting anything or if stuff isn't compatible.  I'm not set on any of the above products, so if anyone has any better suggestions I'd really appreciate it.
