Hey, my whole budget for this build is around 2000 USD. I want to be able to use this computer for gaming for a while. I don't know if it can handle gaming at 4k but any ideas are appreciated. Thanks!

[Billy_Mays]

It's fine for 4k gaming and you can get a decent keyboard for cheap btw

what do you suggest

Gtx 1060 is weak for 4k gaming, 1080 or 1070 would be a better choice

Perhaps medium settings in games, ideally a 1070/1080 or Vega 56/64 would be good if you want to play high-ultra.

It seems Vega 56 would be a good fit but I could easily see it's price driven up by miners

Agree, much better value for money IMO. Those case fans OP had selected at $80 for 3x and having 2 sets was entirely not needed as far as I could see. Better CPU and much better GPU, should see OP through maybe 3-5 years before GPU might need an upgrade, think it will be much longer before CPU needs one.

I would go for this build if I was OP, then just add case fans if you need them... if you're after more bling OP, just grab some LED strips to hook into mobo.

thank you!!

Too much RGB at the expense of performance....heres my adjustments to the build.

Includes an Asus GTX1080 Strix which is good for 1440p gaming, and swapped out the monitor for a better 1440p monitor for 75Hz gaming.

it depends on which game. My 960 would do fine at 4k 60FPS minecraft but only gets 30FPS in ultra 1440p SW battlefront.

It's a 1060 6gb and my friend plays BF1 with a i7 6700 with a 980 medium low settings and he gets 60-90fps
