Hello OC Forums!
I used to frequent this place years ago under a different username, and I have been out of the PC hardware loop for the past 6 years or so.
Anyways, it's time to dive into a complete from scratch PC build. That's right, the only parts being reused are my speakers and headphones! I will appreciate any and all advice that can be rendered here. I am looking to build a performance PC that will be able to perform single threaded CPU/memory intensive task (think about turn based strategy games where the turns take forever in the end of the game, or for the occasional data crunch), as well the latest and greatest in 4K gaming! That is not to say that price is not an issue, if there is a different part with maybe 5% less performance for half the price, I am all ears!
Alright, is the build for the Computer itself, following this will be mice/keyboards/monitors
