buildhelp Plex and Gaming $1,500 Budget

[gamingdozer]

I am in the US and am looking to spend approximately $1,500 for a gaming PC and Plex server. The desktop needs a 4k capable DVD drive. For monitors this PC is going to live in my living room and I will be using my 4k tv though I don't need to game at 4k definitely need to be able to watch media at 4k. In addition my Plex server will be shared with 1-2 external users. I don't need any peripherals or OS included in the build. Let me know if you need any additional details

If you don't plan on overclocking, at least extensively, get a B450 Tomahawk
