That's about all the skills you need. And of course there are dozens of tutorials that can help you get the job done.

Are you opposed to building yourself? From the title it sounds like you're seeking a prebuilt

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Here is a system with a 2080 and 9700k for $1800, That's a pretty good deal especially because it comes with a 1TB NVMe SSD, You could probably fit a 2080Ti in your budget if you were willing to build it yourself.

You can always follow one of the many LTT build guides, it's not difficult at all. (I quickly threw together a PCPartPicker list to see if it would fit in your budget), I would follow @fasauceome's list instead of mine :P

Are you looking for custom cables because it comes with cables, they are just not connected because it a modular one, the advantage is that a lot of the time you wont need every cable it comes with.

They're all included, and of course stow any cables you don't use in a closet somewhere in case you need them later.

One last thing I would add is PC parts fluctuate in price a lot so use that PC partpicker link to keep track of the prices and sales, like that graphics card is on sale for $ 150 less. Other than that, good luck with the build!

The graphics card is on a $100 off sale, if you buy now with the promo code and then wait for the rest of your funds I'd say that's the best move.
