What's your budget for the upgrade? there is no limit cuze i won court case and got some $$$ And are you buying everything from amazon US? most of the parts yes they don't have the CPU, Case is too heavy to ship.
The odd thing to me is that, if you care at all about "future proofing" then you shouldn't even be looking at Intel options right now. The LGA1700 motherboards are a dead end platform. The 14900K is the end of the road for whatever motherboard you buy. So there's no point in trying to "future proof" an LGA1700 build. If you care about future performance, you'd need to go with an AMD build, as the AM5 socket has future CPUs coming for it. In theory, it should at least go to the 9000 series, but this has not been confirmed by AMD. The 8000 series, however, is confirmed, and not just the APU options. Later this year, we should be getting new 8000 series chips based on Zen 5, and unless something is horribly amiss, the 8950X will be faster than the 14900K for all tasks. With that said, I wouldn't be trying to "future proof" at all. It's a fool's errand. The only reason that "future proof" builds seemed to happen in the last decade is that Intel stagnated hard and AMD was non-existent. So the software industry couldn't move forward with games and programs that scaled to high performance parts, as they just didn't exist for the average consumer. There was no core increase on mainstream consumer platforms from Intel between the i7 860 and the i7 7700K (2009-2017). There was basically no meaningful improvement in performance core-for-core between the i7 6700K and the i9 10900K (2015-2020). And AMD didn't release a new CPU that mattered for high-end PCs from 2013-2017. So if you happened to buy a Core i7 2600K in early 2011, the fact that you were able to keep using it and still playing the latest games until around 2019 or so was a bizarre fluke that has never happened before and probably isn't going to happen again for a while now that AMD and Intel are both competitive at the same time again. Don't focus on future proofing. Focus on what your needs are today and in the foreseeable future and plan a build accordingly using existing parts. And as an aside, PCIe Gen 5 is basically just bigger-number-better marketing for 99% of consumers. Unless you are a professional that knows that you need high storage speeds for video editing, compression, or certain types of programming and simulation work, you are fine with even a cheap PCIe Gen 3 drive. The difference in real-world use cases, outside of large file transfers, is basically meaningless.
