I laughed really hard when I came to this post and seen "I hope you have a deep pocket." I knew right away I was gonna like it.
That was the CPU and motherboard I was looking at. The ram looks good too. I am really, REALLY, iffy/scared to use watercooling. My luck, something would break. I have never used watercooling before either. I have this fan currently, could I just use it? https://www.newegg.c...N82E16835103099
My PSU is actually a corsair tx650. Who knew?!?! HA!
I am going through a medical settlement, and I think I want to spoil myself after everything I went through and computer gaming/building is my hobby. Also, my dad deserves better too. He is getting more and more into gaming in his free time and complains of lag and stuff on World of Warcraft.
If it helps, the RGB colors that illuminate from my computer are not anything special to me, in other words, it won't bother me to have no color. In fact, the way my setup is, my tower is on my left and the tower window is on it's left, so I can't even see inside it. However....I could use a room change.
I feel pretty happy with that build you provided. Is there anything you would change/update/suggest otherwise from there? The PSU may need to be higher with this build, yes?
Also, monitor is 4k 55inch.
Edit: I always think of something else after I post my replies
What is the difference between the 2 cards shown here:

And the one you put in the build? They all have the same product numbers so they are the same item, but the prices are so different?!
For the RAM, I am noticing that you suggested the one with 3200 but I found a combo with the same RAM but at 3000, which is better?
Combo here:

This is the wish list I built on Newegg, ignore the SSD, it'd be for my dad, since he is not getting mine!
