Hi , this is going to be my first pc build, I just have a kind of crappy laptop right now so looking to upgrade. Mostly doing some uni schoolwork and gaming. I'm in the USA also, and would prefer to make an AMD rig but eh, doesn't matter too much to me. My budget is for somewhere between 2000 and 2200 ideally. I don't need too much storage either, only using around 300GB right now, so I would like to opt for solely a 1TB ssd if possible (or ideal? not entirely sure). Im planning to run around 3 monitors. I have all the other peripherals and a copy of windows 10. I would generally like to run upward of 60 frames, ideally 120 on medium settings (1920-1080) but that might be aiming too high. Generally playing Rocket League, WoW, Overwatch, nothing extremely demanding. Let me know what I should change on! (I also need wifi accessibility but not sure at all what is a good item for that would be)

Is there anything I could ramp up because I don't need the monitors? Thanks for the suggestion on putting them in the price though!
