Hi I havent built a pc in a few years and been out of the loop, please give recommendations for cpu and mobo, for an Core i5 or i7 build, and ram, purchasing from new egg thx...

Three things that will help with recommendations:
1. Budget
2. Usage
3. Are you overclocking

Board
CPU
RAM

EDIT: If the build in your signature is still your build now, consider getting an SSD too.. You'll probably want a new/good cooler as well.

Or m.2 since you usually get 2 on z370.
A cooler is necessary coolermaster has decent aio for the same price as a good air cooler if you have room (240 seidon for example). A new HDD for storage are cheap as well, 60-120 for a 1-4 Tb
