Hey guys, my old 2008 desktop gaming PC needs to be replaced so I'm looking to buy a new one(it still runs league of legends fine, but I want to play all the newest games on high graphics settings and on a larger monitor). I was just wondering what you guys thought about my gaming pc build below? I do not plan on overclocking anything. Please let me know what you would add/remove or change about it. I am going to use it mainly for gaming and my budget cap is probably about 4,000 dollars, but I would like to whittle it down to as low as possible if the performance increase is minor/insignificant. So basically I want a maximum bang for the buck PC that does not sacrifice quality and has near the top performance. Also is it beneficial to upgrade the fan or to liquid cooling if I don't plan to overclock it?
