First and foremost a HUGE thank you! I ended up placing this order this afternoon just a few minutes ago.

It's frivolous, but it is fun and that's what this is really about right? Ended up spending a little more than I originally had planned, but I was able to update all my peripherals as well. Huge thanks to all again. And looking at the Black Friday ads, I was able to save over $600 from the original price of all of this stuff just a few weeks ago.

Wow you guys are amazing!!!! This is a lot to digest. But can't thank you all enough for the responses. I feel like i have learned so much over the past month or so, but the more I learn the more I realize I don't know...LOL.

Yeah I read about this and watched some videos on this, but it scares me if I am being honest, I don't even know where to start in this process.

It's been a while since I was really into computer gaming, hell its been 20 years. Having recently turned 40 and been stuck in Console land for the past 20 years, I am ready to head back into the land of PC gaming. And most importantly the wifey has given the OK to build a computer. The question becomes, what do I need. I want to be able to play any game that I want without worry about hardware for the next couple of years. I already have a decent monitor (will need to upgrade in the future, but it works for now) I have about $1500 Max to work with, but would like to keep it less if possible. I have been watching nothing but YouTube videos trying to get back in the game for a few weeks. I am hoping to make all the purchases on Black Friday to make the most of my money. Thoughts? Where can I save some money? Current Equipment Monitor = LG 34UM60-P - 34" Ultrawide FreeSync Idea 1 ( A Little on the Spendy Side) CPU - Ryzen 7 3700X GPU - MSI GeForce RTX 2060 Super MOBO - ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus WiFi RAM - 16 GB G.SKILL RipJaws (or equivalent DDR4 at 3200) COOLER - Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CASE - I don't know SSD - Atleast 1 TB HDD - Something 2-3 TB to hold video Power Supply = Rosewill Hive Series 750W Modular Keyboard = Rosewell Mechanical Keyboard with Cherry MX Blue Mouse = Corsair Gaming M65 Pro Headphones = Corsair Gaming VOID Pro ???? - Will I regret going with a Ryzen 5 3600 instead? I will mostly be using it for Gaming, and the occasional work project (video editing) although I do most of that at the office. ???? - Is the graphics card overkill? ???? - Where else can I save some Money? ???? - Case ideas? I like the idea of a little RGB ( I have a Seahawks themed office and would love some more blue and green in there) ???? - Any other info that could be helpful. *I know with wanting to do this on Black Friday, I am going to have to make some adjustments based on sales and what not, but if I can nail down the CPU, GPU, MOBO, COOLER ideas then adjust the rest, I think I will be happy.
