I don't think you'll get a very well rounded system with a budget like that...

Not too bad, though you still need a monitor. If you're spending that much I'd personally put everything on an SSD, but each to their own.

Why is that?

 

Solid performance at 4K, good white/black/silver color scheme. Within budget, X370 so you can SLI in the future. Also fast-ass RAM kit that looks dope af, get a Kraken X62 later if you want some RGB + cooling even though the 1700 comes with an RGB cooler

Well, to be honest I agree but only his graphics card and monitor cost around 1800$ and I don't think that psu isn't that bad. But about 1600, yeah stock cooler is nice he might buy that cpu
