I am going to upgrade my setup which was of 5-7 years(gt 230 and 2gb ram). I would like to have a black and white theme build if possible.I an currently using old peripherals and monitor too.

 

I am using it for games and productivity.I would like a 1440p 60fps monitor and some new peripherals as my monitor is an old 1080p one and i have never owned first hand ones.And i live in Singapore , Amazon and Sim Lim Square are available.

 

And an X99 with GTX 1080/70 would be nice too.Thanks. I dont mind if its S$500 above the budget.

 

My idea: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/pPBJnn   give or take around $4000+

1. Switch NEX PSU to G2/GS (bad quality)

2. You might want to reconsider the headset. Kraken is virtual 7.1 and as you have money leftover from your 4K budget you could use some money to real headphones like Audio Technicas.

3. Do you really need 32GB of RAM? Its not big saver but if your productivity use needs over 16, then its alright.

4. Have you considered about little more expensive ultrawide monitor?

5. You can get Win10 pro licenses from Kinguin for around ~30$

6. Evgas GTX 1080 FTW fits better for your theme as it has white accent on the cooler.

 

Hopefully you find some parts of my list helpfull.

32GB for a modded mc server(30+ mods and shaders) i sometimes play with my siblings and as far as i know it would be enough for 60fps stable

With 4k budget you can go for the x34.

Dont think so...here its way more than 1k..maybe 1.5k

And? 2.5k left. Thats more than enough for a highend PC.
