PlantJam,

You could likely get better average performance by rethinking your budget. Instead of $3000 and stretching it to 5-10 years, you could spend $1500 now, $500 for a gpu and/or cpu upgrade in a few years, then a complete rebuild a few years after that.

The idea is that by getting less than the latest and greatest, you’ll spend less and be more willing to upgrade when the component starts showing its age. You’ll also spend less time with components out of warranty.

One last note, I don’t see storage on your list. I recommend a 2 TB SSD at minimum, 4 TB if the prices make sense.
