Computer Help

[MarsupialShoe]

So i need help with finding a good computer that i can use. I would like it prebuilt but if its not its fine

My budget is 2,250 USD

AIM: I am going to use it for gaming and for making content and editing.

Monitors: 1 at the moment but want to upgrade in the future so the computer needs to be able to support three

Why: I have no good computers for gaming or editing so i need a new computer for such stuff.

Checkout digital storm they are greally when it comes to prebuilt plus customer service is amazing there too

nope you wont  it is as easy as like building lego lol

it will take time for your first time but it is worthy and also fun! i don't recommend pre built's because it is overpriced by acknowledging that Australian prices are too damn high!

 

I got some parts for you here but it is little bit over your budget, but clearly this will wreck any games and some editing at 1440p or maybe 4k. If you really tight with the budget, you can choose a cheaper z170 board and call it a day. I choose this board just for the looks and some little features so changing it to another z170 board will do!

For the video card what makes that one so expensive and what are the specs about it. I was going to go with a EVGA 1080 FTW graphics card but what makes this one the best?

depends on you, the asus one have a great cooler and good aesthetics if you like the FTW one just change it and you will have no problem at all! also the FTW have a higher clockspeed so you can consider choosing it.

With the current setup (using the FTW) what would be a good 1440p monitor.
