Planning my first build

[Solidnightmare]

Budget (1000 usd): 

Country: USA 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for:  mainly gaming, possible use for streaming movies to my home devices

Other details looking maily 1080p possibly 4k, don’t care for ray tracing, if anyone could recommend a decent monitor that would be great, would I need a better cooler or is that stock one fine?

So i assume Plex? Intel would make more sense here via QSV, and from there we can get AMD GPU which would boost the gaming side.

Yes I was thing of using Plex I was thinking of using this pc to rip the files and send them to my other pc that’ll be used for storage and can direct play from there without transcoding, if I can even get that to work, I’m still figuring out all this stuff
