What will you use it for?

Is there already an idea for an upgrade path or why the high end CPU and mid tier GPU?

What's up with the weird monitor setup?

 

 

EDIT:
If you were to ask me about this PC purely for gaming i would:
- Get a different, cheaper, CPU

- Cheaper motherboard,

- Cheaper Case

- Better graphics card (or if you can, wait for 4000 Series)

- throw that HDD away and replace the 1TB SSD by the 2TB version

- Get one good 1440p 165hz monitor

- Go Aircooling although i understand working with an AIO is easier.

What is with those monitors ? Are you just using one monitor for gaming, and the other two as non gaming screens ?

 

That is a very unbalanced build for gaming. You are spending $3100 and only getting an RTX 3060.

 

Something like this for example has an RTX 3080 and still gives you $1200 for monitors. I haven't included Windows as you could look at buying a code instead of paying $100+ for it. Places that sell game codes usually sell windows keys.
