Processor AMD FX(tm)-8350 Eight-Core Processor
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750
RAM 8.0 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 10 (build 16299), 64-bit

You could get a GEFORCE GTX 1080 and also get a 32gb (CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600)

Oh-ow, she said price isn't a problem.....

I'm sorry but that CPU is pretty weak. Modern mid-high end CPUs are twice! as fast.

I'd recommend upgrading to either an i9 7900x, i7 7800x or Ryzen 7 1800x or 1700x (depending on how much you want to spend.)
Buying any of these will mean you'll have to buy a new motherboard.

You'll have to get new DDR4 RAM, at least 16GB I'd say.

For GPU I would recommend the GTX 1070 if you want to stay @ 1080p otherwise go GTX 1080 Ti if you go higher.

Get an (NVMe if you're ok with the price) SSD if you don't have one, it really speeds everything up considerably.
