I am hoping after wrestling season to start back up my gaming career. It is hard to post while in pain 24/7. Too much dedication towards it, but when I am over with this season I am going all in for gaming.
I want your help to build the best of the best gaming pc. Range of $1000-3000 Preferably.
Hit me up with your custom build that would be best for me. I will be running most likely dual monitor's one for media as I will be streaming a lot, and one for gaming. I have recording software and editing software. All I need is your guy's best build you can come up with in the range.

Opinions matter.

Sincerely,

JaySo

What kind of resolution and framerate do you require? I could jimmy up something that could do 1080p60, or something that could do 1440p60.

Do you want the part list to include monitor, keyboard, mouse and wireless adapter as well?

Why such an insane power supply? I say lower that and remove one of the 3tb drives and increase the storage on the SSD :p Overall though that build is pure domination.

Like I said in the PowerSupply Section, It offers the ability to upgrade to Dual or Triple 980 Ti's or a better GPU in the future if he wanted.

Sure! I am not sure what all I would need to have a master gaming pc that can run anything to stream, make videos and just have fun.

Sorry for the late reply, I just got back from my trip from Arkansas, and finally got home,

The reason as to why I added so many fans is to maximize your airflow to enable your hardware to have a longer life duration.

You could build an amazing gaming computer for around $800 and having a budget of $1000-3000 allows you to do a lot of things. I would list out what you parts you could use but that would probably boring but I would say go on Newegg, they have a few different types of builds you can order, they send you the parts with instructions and you go at it :)
NEVER buy a gaming pc unless it's from alienware, iBuyPower / CyberPowerPC are absolute garbage, they cheap out on PSU's so you might want to just build it all yourself :)

I always say never buy one period with the rare exception of OriginPC as their customs work is absolutely impressive. :p Anyone selling you a pre-made or making it for you is ripping you off and you can do it miles cheaper by doing the work yourself.

Only other time I make an exception and buy a computer instead of building it is Apple.

Apple, OriginPC are both great choices. Also, IronPC or whatever they are called now work well. I'm building a $300 gaming computer right now, good luck with your build :)

If your build is amazing for $300 then hmu with your build. Im looking into the OriginPC. Is it desktop builds? or laptop. also if its custom builds then would it be considered a prebuild if they sell them?

Honestly, You really wouldnt have to go that high. I have a $1100 desktop and I have had it for 4 years and it still operates at its max. Playing any game in max res with between 50 to 60 FPS. Also it does video editing pretty decent too. It might be slow for some people but Im patient so it doesnt bother me. But if you not a patient person I say go with a sweet spot build around $1500 or more.

I also prefer intel setups because of the Mac OS but that your choice.

Good Luck,

Gamer
