Build Help/Ready:
Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do)
Done multiple times over my browsing of this sub
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
Besides gaming, this build is for general use and will need to last for quite a few years
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, FPS, game settings)
Replace this text with your answer.
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
Around $1000-1100. I'm not opposed to upgrading some parts for the sake up better longevity, and of course open to downgrading if there are parts that have little return value compared to their less expensive counterparts
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
USA
Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please). Consider formatting your parts list. Don't ask to be spoonfed a build (read the rules!).

Provide any additional details you wish below.
I tried to find a semi-completed part list on pcpartpicker, and then tried to make it my own. Some of the parts, like the extra coolers and fans, I picked based on the star system on the parametric rating they have in the UI. Again, just to reiterate, I'm not against upgrading if there is a good reason to, downgrading to save money on nonessential parts/overpriced parts, and figuring out a build for longevity, compared to a focus on speed or overclocking.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm not entirely new to computers, but this is my first build.
