my budget is $2000 USD. hlep

Hey guys, new to the forums. I've been tinkering with PC building since I was a kid, but the one thing I've always had a hard time with is understanding the science of the parts and compatibility. I'd love some help with my goal build.

 

I have $2000 at most to spend on the PC itself (already have keyboard, mouse, etc). I'll be using this for gaming, streaming, editing video audio and art. I really love RGB and I know razer recently opened up their chroma software to other products, and would love to have different parts in the build that are compatible with razer chroma.

 

Thanks for the help in advance and I can't wait to learn more and chat with you guys in the future!

well as of right now im not aware of any RGB controlled hardware that works with chroma other than razer items, because it usually works off the motherboard and then from there it would be like asus aura sync or the msi mystic lighting or the gigabyte whatever or who evers, then its a matter of matching those parts and then you could match your chroma to your PCs lighting with a custom light profile

Why not just get one 1440p 21:9 ultra wide display? Or better yet one 40+" 4k display?

If you end up with free-sync displays probably grab Vega 56

 

For the CPU an R7 2700 will be fine for gaming/streaming.

 

If you really care about streaming grab the $400-450 1920X 12 core, bit slower than the R7 2700 for gaming, extra cores are better for streaming and some other production stuff.
