2nd build.. need input on my ryzen build

[Dan20]

1. Budget & Location

northeast USA

would like to stay under $2500 if possible

2. Aim

i typically play older games but would like to venture into newer heavy gaming(prefer immersive rpgs , but also have an interest in anno 1800 just restricted by my dated rig. may also would like to dip into VR in the future when i can afford a headset(opinions on that would be great too)

also run programs in the background (ie discord, 2 to 3 web, vpn)

 

I'm torn on what monitor or monitors to get. i don't need super extravagant but a decent refresh rate and resolution. im leaning towards an ultra wide currently, 35in but also tend to used a second monitor on occasion.

 

i don't plan on doing any overclocking hence just the stock cooler with the ryzen cpu

4. Peripherals

i have access to windows education for free and as far as peripherals im using razer naga and anasi keyboard logitech g933 headset and plan on using them in the new rig. may also get the farming simulator wheel/side controller (go ahead and laugh)

5. Why are you upgrading?

short answer is its time. 5+ year old rig has trouble running most any game. some games are only playable on the lowest settings . have also been experiencing blue screens rather often that i have neither the time/ adequate knowledge to address.

970 evo and 32gb of ram is unnecessary, same thing with the 850w PSU.
