Need help on building a PC

[DweJiBah]

I've been struggling with building a PC for a while now and I would like y'all's opinion on what to build. I would mainly play games on it, but would like to start editing 4k drone footage in the near future (like in 6 months). I would like to set my budget for $1,500-$2,000 USD and that's without peripherals. But I would still need a monitor and any recommendations for decent monitors would be wonderful. Thanks for taking time and helping me out!

You could go with a 9900k, but I still think the price for it is outrageous.

I am curious about upgrade-ability for this build. Is it easy to do so? And for the GPU, if i were to get a 1080 ti would it bottle neck for the processor it has already? Thank you so much for picking out the parts tho!

The AM4 socket for the cpu won't be dying off any time soon, so upgradability is totally viable if you would need to in short run.

1080ti is a fine choice, but unless you buy used you'll be paying a low supply/high demand price.
