Budget (including currency): 50-150USD

Country: USA

I am building a new rig but I am having trouble trying to find a part I want. Mainly because I dont know what I am looking for.

I want my PC to be about 6-8 feet away from my desk so its not on the floor and I dont want to have to run a cable for each thing I have across 8 feet because that would be about 6-8 cables without counting monitors having to have usb extension cables and I really dont want to do that. I am okay running the monitors that far but everything would seem a bit much to me IMO. I might be over complicating this and I could just use a USB hub and run the monitor cables to the PC. I also thought about a kvm switch. I do some light gaming like i play Rust and a bunch of RPG games every now and then but I mainly write code all day. Does anyone have any recomendations for what I am asking? if anyone wants more clarification I can gives pictures as well if that Helps with anything?

tldr I want to put my pc about 6-8 feet away from my ddesk without running every cable over that distance. I am also willing to pay for a good product outside of my budget. If i posted this in the wrong spot please feel free to tell me to move it somewhere else.

 

If anyone wants to know i am building a system based around a 10900K and a Hero 13

this is an upgrade from my current 4770K

One Solution is if you wanna have just one cable is to have a PCIE Thunderbolt Card which accepts a HDMI or Display port in you could then run this set up ot your desk and then output the video again and also pass the Thunderbolt adapter for USB needs. Also I'd recommend using wireless keyboard and mouse to make life easier in general with this solution

 

Other solution if you can get away with just a keyboard, mouse and monitor you could get a Wireless HDMI Adapter to send it from your PC to your monitor and use wireless keyboard and Mouse, but don't expect good framerates or resolution with this
