It's been a long time since i built my last custom PC and it has served me for over a decade with 0 problems and only minor graphic card upgrades but I am way out of the loop now. I just created an account on here so I don't know if anyone can see my PC in my profile but I will list what I am planning below. Pretty much I want to know if this system looks good, how do you think it will handle 4k, and if there are any upgrades I would be better off going with. Any help would be much appreciated because it's time to retire the PC I built in 04'. Also if anyone could recommend a solid 4k monitor that'd be great!!!

What would you recommend for a smoother fps in aaa titles? (as in what components would be best to change?)

You would want 2 x GTX 980's or 2 x R9 290X's for 4K. Even then if you get a game that is very demanding, you might be looking at 40FPS.
