Hello all,

I'm looking to build my first gaming desktop. My ultimate goal is to build something that's going to last 5ish years and still be able to run the top games at high settings. Mainly for gaming, but I also do some streaming and work on little graphic stuff on gimp/photoshop etc. I'm ultimately going to run a graphics card that is good for now until the release of the 3070/3080/Ti cards this late summer, So I want parts that are going to be able to run that card at it's optimal performance, mobo,CPU, Memory etc etc.. my price point is somewhere between 1500/2000 is the max. I've been researching and learning tons, but would like some pcbuilder parts lists that I can refer to so if anyone would be willing to help me out that would be awesome. Im also leaning more towards AMD for a higher end CPU right now (3900). I don't mind if I'm bottlenecking from a CPU standpoint til I get the 3070/80 card, I just want parts compatible so when I do get it, I don't run into any issues. Thank you for anyone willing to help out. Btw I need most gaming peripheral parts as well including a good monitor etc...
