So for this build I'm spending roughly £3k and I want to be able to play games in 4k as well as using to to work on videos and graphic designing, with this amount I need 1 monitor with 144 hz 1ms delay. Time to switch from using laptops. Previous laptop was lenovo y50-70 not recommending it to anyone. Thank you for helping in advance :)

 

I will be buying the parts at the end of June
