So you're looking for a CPU/ Motherboard recommendation if I'm not mistaken?

As far as video editing goes LTT made a video about a budget 4K editing rig which might give you some inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_HKRUPN1Mk

 

Both Sims and Rome Total War 2 should be fine with your 650 Ti (a 650 is the official recommendation for Sims 4).

 

With Plex I'm unfortunately not very familiar. However I understand that you need quite a bit of computing power for seven simultaneous 4k streams plus two more virtual machines. I guess you will inevitably end up having to go for a Threadripper 3000 series CPU and at least 32 GB of RAM. For your host OS (e.g. Unraid or some other virtualisation friendly Linux distro) you'll want to reserve at least one or two cores, maybe check out one of the several virtualisation videos LTT made for reference.
