Graphics card on my old rig seems dead and everything else was pretty old so time for a complete new build!

Budget: $2000+
More specific use (what games, what programs): I like to multitask/multibox on 3x monitors. Want to play anything currently out @ max settings on at least a single screen, or multi box games like Eve on the 3. Also like to watch TV on a screen + play games on one + get shit done on another etc.
Planned time until purchase: Immediately
Do you need an Operating System?: Yes
Do you have any specific preferred components?: Modular power supply. Large case with room for extra HDs. SSD for windows and separate SSD for games.
Do you need a sound or wireless card?: Wireless yes. Sound not sure--I just use little bose speakers
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: Stock.
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: none
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): Los Angeles

Please do consider overclock. Its quite simply and its another like 20% performance on the CPU.

This build is diff overkill for your current needs.

A 6700k, gtx 1070 and 16GB RAM would be sufficient. for your needs. At least you wouldn't have to upgrade for a while.
And try to see if you wouldn't be able to get on wired ethernet.

This would be sufficient right now:

Isn't it just a rebrand of the 840 Evo? Bad SSD. Had problems.

More likely than not? It's the same exact build as far as I can tell. 850 Evo >
