Hello all, I'm considering building a new gaming rig, perhaps in near future. My last build was some 6 years ago, after that I went to a gaming laptop. Now I'm going back to desktop gaming.
I would appreciate any advice on components I picked. Budget around $2000, preferred Intel/ Nvidia/ EVGA
Only things I have to reuse is 128gb Samsung 850pro (for OS) and my old LG monitor will have to do for now.
