Hello, I built a pc around 3 years ago and it's starting to not meet my needs/wants. It can't really output the quality/frames I need anymore and am planning on giving it as a gift to one of my siblings for college(also likes games, also doesn't know much about computers). I live in the USA, more specifically Oregon. I just got a bunch of money out of a car wreck and have been looking to upgrade for a while. My budget is around 2k and i already have everything else for my setup(might get a new monitor tho, but that's besides the point). I need it to be able to play modern titles at 144+fps and on some semi-high quality settings. Would that be possible with a budget of 2k or will it need to be higher(dont really want to spend more than 2k on a computer tho)? I dont really have anything else besides i would like a black or wood(are those a thing? I feel like they only are for custom things) and a side panel to look inside.

 

TLDR:need a 2k pc build, i want the case to be black and/or wood with a side panel, need it for gaming, mainly fps so should be able to get 144+fps, live in Oregon, USA.

 

Edit:OS-windows 10 64-bit, monitor and peripherals are already owned

that looks pretty good, my only thing is what about case fans? are there any in particular that might benefit that case?

It already comes with two pretty nice case fans.

It includes 2 already, one in and one out, just pick up another 1 or 2, they are perfectly serviceable fans. The front can hold 3 total and they are 13$ a piece so I would just pick up 2 more and call it a day.

EDIT - You probably dont need to add them, but I over build almost everything and when we are talking about $26 bucks in a $1500 build I would just do it
