Good afternoon and welcome to the Micro Center Community! Happy to hear you're joining the Build Your Own PC community and looking to tackle your first build. With a budget of $2500 you could definitely build a monster of a gaming PC. One of the things I would suggest before you start is ask, is this budget for building just the PC, or would this include your monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers/headset.
If so I think the following link would be a great option and with tax this will run over a bit over $2000, but will leave some room either for different upgrades to the PC, or room for you to get something on the side to complete this setup. https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=f065595e-3310-4a39-822d-91610e2319c1
I hope this helps, and if you'd like more assistance, our Sales Consultants at your local Micro Center will be happy to assist! Good luck, stay safe, and happy building!

Hello @CosmicKev, welcome to the Micro Center Community.
Just a few questions before we starting picking out parts! Do you have a monitor already? If so, what resolution? Are also using the budget for peripherals like keyboards and mice? Lastly, what do you plan on using this computer for? What kind of games are you going to be mainly playing? -
I have nothing, I need it all! I usually play online games like GTA and Rust.
