Personally, SSD and up the graphics card. The most important piece of information missing is how long would you like this rig to last, or "future proofed".

Realistically for a high end gaming rig, you're at least going to be doubling the price.
there is no such thing as a future proof computer and a high end computer twice the price is not going to be touched by games we have nowadays

My computer is modest has a modest GPU and is still more powerful than both the next gen consoles so seeing as most games are console ports and you are lucky to get them better than the consoles why spend twice as much on a machine that you may get 1 or 2 games for that push it?

If my prediction comes true with X86 being next gen that may change but it has not yet

I do not get people that are obsessed with frame rates and some even have them constantly on the screen when they play. Games look awesome on my rig they play smoothly maybe on a couple I do not have ll the bells and whistles but it imo it certainly is not worth £1000 just to say oh I have everything as high as I can and still get 100 frames yadda yadda
