I don't tend to have piles of money sitting around (If I have it I tend to blow it on entertainment or helping others) and I'm not great at saving; so I plan to buy piece at a time forcing me to tighten my belt rather than trying to tighten the belt and saving to buy. Knowing who I am, it's the head game I play. Also taking a little time, I may find some good sales for certain parts.
I'm pretty solid in my CPU choice: i7 6700k
I've read arguments for a cpu in the 58xx range that would put me in a motherboard of the future, but I'm going with a build the best I can afford now and replace in 2-4 years philosophy.
I'm also set on having 32G of fast RAM expandable to 64G. Overkill for now I know, but I want to leave that starving for RAM feeling in the dust. Never again.
I am also biased toward Samsung SSDs.
Beyond that, my partpicker list is a random whatever looks like it would work collection open to changes. I have 64G RAM listed just to insure compatibility if needed. Will only buy 32G to build.

I went with windows7 pro since there have been hints of problems with 10 and DP. Maybe that will be a non issue by the time I get around to the OS purchase. Likely the last thing I get. Then I can change my signature line.
