Sorry bro 5k will only build you HALF a setup, maybe only even THREE-EIGHTHS of a setup.

If you really want a FULL setup you'll need 10-15k at least.

Point of diminishing returns is ~2k. Don't waste your money.

>spending $5000 on a computer
you only need about $500 to build a basic computer capable of 98% of all work. i'm assuming you want it for gaming. you understand you would be spending $4500 on what amounts to manchild toy parts? if you are okay with that, truly, hang yourself.

Just the LGBT lights are worth 5k.

Good luck OP.

Case: Anything Fractal Design
Mobo ASUS or MSI
CPU 7600K or 7700K
GPU 1080Ti
M.2 with 256GB is enough, then buy a 1TB SSD for games and use old PC for your movies and files you don't often use.

>>60678475
Wait until thread ripper and mobos come out, get the most jacked SKUs.
Take advantage of all those lanes with triple m.2 drives and throw in a pair of whatever will be the fastest GPU available; Nvidia if you care about G-sync, Goyworks or CUDA.
Even then I think you'll have enough left over for some crazy monitor like a 4K 144hz IPS.

The difference between wealthy people and trust fund kiddies

Wealthy people
>Know the value of their money
>Can spend anything they need, but not wasteful
>Understand diminishing returns
>Drive a nice car and own a nice house

Trust fund kiddies
>Born into money, no understanding of value
>Wasteful, gluttonous
>Won't be rich for long, unless their investment advisor manages everything for them

If you're on 4chan whining about "manchildren", you are a manchild.

Spend 1500 on a system and put the rest into crypto

Wait till threadripper in the summer anon

point of diminishing returns is easily 1k

Take $3500 and build a really nice NAS, since that will be really useful for you.
Take the rest and buy a really nice monitor, mouse and keyboard. Squander what's left on a mid-range computer + video and replace it in 36 months or less.
You'll thank me later.

Then add another 4k IPS display if you plan to use this for anything other than NAS, because a second monitor is a great thing to have.

Realistically though, you could leave out the second GPU and get a 750W PSU and you probably wouldn't notice much difference.
