Hello @Chrix
Thank you for posting on the Micro Center Community! What kind of games and at what resolution are you looking to play at? -
I am looking to play at 4k if possible. Planning on playing games like gta5 and cyberpunk (when eventually released) and also planning to stream. Looking for something to last a while and be easily upgraded. This will also be used for development and will be running windows subsystem for linux. I plan on eventually getting a VR rig to work with it.

I see, you will need to look to upgrade your GPU if you are looking to play at 4K with good frame rates. I would look at at least a 3070 or the upcoming 6000 Series GPUs from AMD.
You also only need the Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240L. You do not need the UX100 CPU Cooler. -
Thank you @TSPhillipT!
Will the GPU support 1080p? If so, I might get this now and upgrade later. -
Yes! That GPU will do 1080 fine! Maybe not for highest settings for CyberPunk but a mid high should be good! Then you can upgrade in the future.
