Check out Linus' video about painting parts. And a car rad? what...

Well for a GPU you can get quad SLI 780ti... In all seriousness, what's your budget?

Get an i5 4690K unless you plan to do alot of video/photo editing/rendering.

 

I'd suggest a EVGA GTX 780 SC ACX, and check other suggestions for ram.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

I still have about 700$ to spend on graphics and ram. Go crazy with that

if you get an i5, then the budget will go up to around 850. with that, you can get a 780ti or r9 290x and get some corsair vengence ram
