Hey guys, I've been gaming on an MSI Dominator, something model number somthing for about two and a half years now. And lately it has been losing the ability to keep up with newer games such as Overwatch. I do not have a desktop yet so i was hoping to build a desktop that could last me a good 5 years with component upgrades here and there. Any suggestions? If you have the time to, it'd be really helpful if you could make your build a pcpartspicker list. My budget is around $1,000. Thank you all.

 

Sorry, but i'd also like to add that i do need a monitor and keyboard in the build. For the keyboard i'm looking at the K70. And i will be gaming on this build.

With monitor and Your desired keyboard ;)

edit: with a bigger budget, I'd opt for a better SSD (Samsung EVO), A mobo with more features (USB type-c etc) and maybe a bigger screen.
