Hello all,

Advice needed on new gaming rig:

I have not had a gaming PC now in about 4 years - life has been too busy. However, now I am back to a point where I'm able to dedicate it some time and some dollars.

Most of the games in the past 18months have been a nightmare to play on my 5yo laptop - forget about Witcher 3, Andromeda, even RTW2 struggled. I would like to play them and get some kind of enjoyment out of doing so. Shooters aren't really my favourite kind of game, so lightning fast multiplayer isn't a requirement. I do intend to do some movie-watching on the same machine/screen.
I don't even own a screen at this point.

My budget tops out at aprox 1500$, and I do have the skills to assemble a tower. This doesn't need to include peripherals (mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc) but it would be perfect if it included a 30in screen. Probably asking for too much :)

If it helps, I live in Dallas, so UK/EU deliveries are not the best.

Comments appreciated, opinions welcome.

Thanks
