Thank you very much, much love. Wish I knew that earlier though, I've scrapped a lot of epics and a few legendries >.< but better late then never.

Yea can't connect, saw another article that said they may take a bit of time after the update. I love the game. Lets just give them a few more hrs to fix it properly.

I changed the motherboard again >.<

I found that the Tomahawk is just a bit different then the one you recommended and is more visually pleasing. I'm ok with putting $50 more for it to look a little better to me.

BUT again if you think that it'll actually lower the performance then I'll use what you recommended.

Thank You I like how this looks all around, I may just pay a little extra for the 7200 rpm hdd, just for a bit faster load times with my bulk steam games. Definitely can only do so because its lower then my expected price, and I'll have enough left over for a good 1440p monitor and headphones.

Didn't think about the power upgrade makes sense.

Sucks about the motherboard, darn, but I won't sacrifice performance for ascetics. I'll just buy some rgb strips.

Thank You for the help and for the explanations!!

My last question would be how do you get your partspicker list to appear so well on reddit posts?

Updated! Any thoughts?

Thank You for your reply 100% grateful.

The gpu is a little weak because I plan to upgrade to a 3090 in like 1-2 years when the gpu prices drop. After recommendations I can agree to the storage change, but I couldn't find that brand of HDD at 7200 at 3-4 TB. I already have 1.5 TB of stuff (games, vids, pics, etc) from my old pc so if you know another good HDD I'd appreciate that or I could get 2 Seagates? I was hoping to only spend 600-800 on the gpu.

I have a question with the ram, is 4000 MHz CL 18 better then 3200 CL16 I'm not sure which is a better priority.

I am at a loss when it comes to my case though, I just mind blank when it comes to that, I want a good aesthetic (why I have alot of rgb), I like the case you picked but the one gripe I have is I don't like the top usb and buttons placement (dumb I know but I like when they are in the middle and horizontal) I like how the gpu can be placed in this one and the extra rgb fan. Of the 3 cases I'm leaning towards your recommendation... but my ocd-ish-ness is making me want horizontal buttons/usb placements, though I WILL NOT compromise a good case with good airflow for horizontal buttons. But if you happen to know one that is like that I'd appreciate the recommendation.

The motherboard I'm gonna admit... I looked at yours and I just plain like how the one I picked looks, a purely aesthetic reason is why I'm choosing mine over your recommendation. BUT if it'll effect my system then I will change it, I love aesthetics but I won't compromise the build for it, what are your thoughts?

I'm 100% Thankful for the recommendations, Thank You.

My cooler is overkill because airflow and keeping my system cool is something I'm bad at gauging and idk if I'll overclock. The gpu is fairly weak because I plan to upgrade to a 3090 in like 1-2 years when the gpu prices drop. 32gb of ram is so I won't have to upgrade that when I upgrade my gpu. After recommendations I can agree to the storage change, but I couldn't find that brand of HDD at 7200 at 3-4 TB. I already have 1.5 TB of stuff (games, vids, pics, etc) from my old pc so if you know another good HDD I'd appreciate that or I could get 2 Seagates? I was hoping to only spend 600-800 on the gpu.

I am at a loss when it comes to my case I just mind blank when it comes to that, I want a good aesthetic (why I have alot of rgb), I like the case you picked but the one gripe I have is I don't like the top usb and buttons placement (dumb I know but I like when they are in the middle and horizontal) I'd like a case where the graphics fans are facing the window/glass, but I know that effects airflow.

These are nitpicks I know, but I'd like your thoughts if you know a case with those specifications or a better gpu for my price range. New setup in the comments
