I'm just scrolling through some price lists right now—not totally sure what would be a solid choice for around $2333 including a monitor.
Most of my work will involve the Adobe suite—though I'll definitely have some downtime for FPS games or maybe some FIFA/PES...
So, should I aim for at least a 24" or a 27" monitor? And am I overstepping if I ask for recommendations for a PC build around $1667 plus a monitor?

1x Intel Core i5-4460
1x ASRock B85 Pro3-M
1x Kingston 8 + 4GB 1600 MHz (12GB total)
1x Patriot Blast 240 GB SSD SATA 3
1x Toshiba 3.5" 1TB SATA 3
1x Gigabyte Nvidia GeForce GTX 950 2GB GDDR5 WF
1x LG DVD-RW SATA
1x Antec VPC 400W 80+
1x Zalman T2+ Mini ATX USB 3.0
1x Samsung 120 24" PLS LED 1080p

= $2355.

You might actually be looking at an Intel Core i7—it boasts the most powerful integrated graphics currently on the market—but the price tag is just absurd. If it were priced like a standard Intel Core i7 used to be (around $767), it would be a total winner.

At this rate, blaming the rising value of the dollar is just a weak excuse for such massive price hikes.
