>**What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.**
 
* This PC will be for gaming, streaming, and a daily driver. I'll be using the build for streaming (Twitch, YouTube, etc.), programming, blogging, watching media, data storage and serving. A few virtual machines (3-5 max).

* Games include: Elden Ring, Paradox Games such as CK2/Stellaris, Baldur's Gate 3, Apex Legends, Cyberpunk 2077, Factorio, RimWorld, Halo Infinite, Dead By Daylight, Kenshi, Mount and Blade: Bannerlord, No Mans Sky, Old World, Pathfinder Wotr, Star Sector, Bad Rats.
 
>**What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?** 
 
* 3500 (since I already have the cpu cooling fan and one HDD.
 
>**When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.** 
 
* November 1st or sooner
 
>**What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc\)** 
 
* Only the case and internals + Windows. I have monitor and all peripherals. Gaming keyboard suggestions welcome however. 
 
>**Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?** 
 
* Canada, B.C.
 
>**If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.** 
 
* I also already have Deepcool AK620 WH 68.99 CFM CPU Cooler and Western Digital Red Pro 18 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive. Monitor = Predator XB1 (XB271HU bmiprz) and LG Ultrawide (29UM57-P), Keyboard = Pok3r, Headphones = Philips Audio Fidelio X2HR Over-Ear Open-Air Headphone 50mm Drivers
 
>**Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?** 
 
* I will likely want to overclock.
 
>**Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)**
 

* SSD, large storage (Room for several games on SSD), support for more than 2 monitors, friendly to Linux, good audio (I only listen through headphones). I need two separate SSDs since I will run Gentoo and Windows on their own drives. I will store Steam games on the larger Windows SSD most likely. I am aiming for AMD since it seems like it will mesh well with Gentoo. Also important is having an iGPU since I will be running Gentoo as a headless OS, but would like to launch a desktop environment when needed.
 
>**What type of network connectivity do you need? (Wired and/or WiFi) If WiFi is needed and you would like to find the fastest match for your wireless router, please list any specifics.**
 
* Wired, wifi, and bluetooth.
 
>**Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?**
 
* I like the Lian Li LANCOOL III RGB ATX Mid Tower Case or something similar. I am aiming for a dash of white, black, and colour throughout the case. I love Outrun aesthetics e.g., blues+pinks
 
>**Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?**
 
* Windows 11 Pro please
 
>**Extra info or particulars:**

I am flexible with the max price. Overall, I'm looking for something that will last a long time and give me room to build down the line. If you all have any questions about my setup, please feel free to ask. I know it's a bit less common. I have done this type of setup before, but this time I get to plan a computer out ahead of time.

I am aware that there is new hardware coming soon, but I would like to start working on the rig sooner and really don't mind older gen. For this build, I would like to stick to AMD cpu and gpu.

Really appreciate all of your time and help!
Hi u/Eckomute,

This is the 4th time posting your request in the past couple of days. That's a little excessive, especially since you seem to be satisfied with the lists you've received so far

Can you at least explain what you're missing? What's wrong with all the lists you've received so far?

Consider this a friendly-minded warning :)
