It seems that I get a new PC every 5 or so years... So I'm hoping the build below will do another 5 years or so...

I maintly use my PC for gaming, WoW being the main time sink, but Division 2, Far Cry Series and Ark being frequent time sinks, I'm hoping this build will do me for that. Yea I can get cheaper to paly these games at high settings, but I'm looking at 3-5 years and still wanting great performance on high - ultra settings. So will this do or ? I'm happy with the majority of the build, but is there a better CPU/Motherboard config?

I'm sure others will be able to offer more advice than me but 1 thing sticks out, the cpu. If you're gaming then the upcoming Ryzen 7000 X3D cpu's will be ideal, they release next month. You'll need to spec a new motherboard and RAM to go with it as it's a different architecture.

Also, what's the url to the config? It's useful so that others can easily suggest changes. And the price?
