Give me your budget and I'll build you one. I've built many other computers for people in the clan.
You designed, not built.
I actually am a system designer/builder and do custom watercooling GET ON MY LEVEL
So I pulled up a previous build I did before, made a few modifications by updating hardware, and here you go:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/H9HX3FFor soley gaming, this is pretty much the best before your just showing off.
It is a little trickey to build, as it is a compact as fuck system, cause the Core is a tiny case, but I like it. However, if you want full tower, I can give ya full tower.
Gave it a nice black theme as well
So for the reasonings behind my selection:
i5 7600k -> what else?
H60 -> Would normally go for H100, but tiny ass case
MSI Z270I GAMING PRO -> Should be pretty good for overclocking for an ITX, has built in WiFi, as you aint gonna be able to add a card in, and has an M.2 on the back
16GB HyperX Ram -> 16gb should be enough for you, HyperX simply for the color theme
Patriot Ignite M2 -> Not the fastest, but with 480 GB would be perfect to keep your most played games, and other documents as well as be a boot drive, at $180 its a steal
WD 2TB Black HDD -> well I use either WD or HGST, 2TB should be enough for you
EVGA GeForce 1080 FTW DT -> I personally love the FTW cards, gets a decent boost clock over the normal ones, also is fully black with a backplate
RMx 750W -> 750 seems like overkill, but I prefer to go one whole 'level' above (ie, this is a 500w PSU build, so I would grab a 750w) Fully Modular would be alot easier to build and cable manage as this is a tiny ass PC.
Core V1 -> One of my all time favorite cases for ITX builds. For an ITX, easy to build in, and many Windows to see the actual build.
