Hey Guys,

 

I'm about to make a new build but don't know much about this stuff (I can build one, but it's hard for me to know which parts are good)

 

My budget is 2000$/€, and it should be as high end as possible.

I don't need a HDD, I have one already, but i want to add a SSD to that HDD. Graphics card should be something in the range of GTX 1080. 

 

I only had good experiences with this forum so I'm looking forward to your suggestions :)

 

EDIT: I want to play high end games on ultra, stream a bit and edit photos with photoshop.

Saying "750 watt at least psu" isn't a good recommendation, there are psus that are higher wattage that have really bad quality.

Is watercooling necessary? I like the idea of it, but don't want to get too much on it. If it's significantly better I'd would buy it though.

You sure a ryzen build wouldnt be a little bit more tasteful for his streaming, photo editing, and gaming experience. Ryzen handles streaming better also.

I said that before he said what he wanted to use it for, I assumed gaming in which the ipc of the 7700k would be best

a custom loop would be about a third of your budget, you'd have to sacrifice on performance to do it, not worth it. Depending on your case an AIO could be better than a good air cooler but you want at least a 240mm rad, preferably bigger, 120-140mm rads are worse than good air coolers and typically more expensive

No, its a triple fan (like asus, evga)  I chose it because it is 

A) white

B) affordable, watercooled 1080 ti's are +100 more

Want to custom loop?  Ask me more if you are curious

I can see where you were going with the affordable part, just was wondering about the temps is all, still a good pick up :)

corsair h110i gt is pretty clean for an aio

The 1080 ti will be necessary for one of those bad boys, impressive stuff!  IMO the best high end monitors are 1440p ultrawides
