So I'm in the process of planning my first build 1000$ cad.. can go over 200 but that's it. It's (hoping) gonna be a full orange themed build.

Sorry should of posted this before. But I'm looking at doing some graphics designing,photoshop.Have a vinyl plotter aswell and seems to run a little slow on my dad's pc only having 8gb ram.But would like to game on the side aswell. Most of my gaming is on the xbone anyways. Just have 1000$ budget.

And too me the cpu and the mb make up half that so if anyone has anything better please do.

Single monitor aswell. Maybe 2 in the future to run my xbox aswell.

Case:

Silent base 800 orange (non optional)

Motherboard:

Z97x oc (only one I could find orange)

If not just a straight black board.

Ram:

16 gb kit ares g.skill. 

Cpu:

Intel I5 4690k ???? Need some insight

Graphics card: 

Need help on this one 

PSU: 

Cx750m (already have)

Any ssd fine?

Budget? Your budget revolves around what parts you pick, but by the look of it, you can use a new one, like a GTX 1080, Maybe in SLI.
