Yeah I don't know anything about that. I just chose random parts from PC part Picker.

That might be too complicated for you, if you don't have the background knowledge. I'd look at other people's builds to familiarize yourself with the components. If you go to Custom PC Builder | Gaming Desktops & Laptops | CyberPowerPC, you can look at the builds and different options people typically get. It's all visual too, which can help. I'm not saying buy a pc from them, just use them as a reference.Yeah I don't know anything about that. I just chose random parts from PC part Picker.
Once you have your budget secured, you can ask us for help too. It's fun to do the research yourself though, if you have the time. But if you say have $4000, we can help you choose components.
What resolution, settings, and framerate do you want?

Here’s the build for my living room PC:
Part List - Intel Core i9-13900K, GeForce RTX 4090, Lian Li LANCOOL 216 ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker

It’s way more than what you need. You can save money by a going a couple tiers down from these components.
4K, High settings, 120 FPS.
I just went to Cyberpower PC and briefly looked at some builds. Take a loot at this as a starting point. I'd definitely change around some of the default components, but you can get something like this for around that $4k I was thinking:

I'm gonna use Cyberpunk as the baseline, because it's really hard to run (most games aren't this hard to run, but in the future they may be, so it's safe):

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Founders Edition Review - OC3D
Cyberpunk 2077 Whilst it might have been pilloried at launch for delivering terrible performance and few of the claimed features, CD Projekt Red have proven why they are one of the best developers around by continuing to work on it until it is now spectacular. It looks glorious, plays like a...
I'd spend extra and get the 4080, but it looks like the 4070 will be good for most games.

The problem with the 4070 is it’s not really a 4k card. It doesn’t have enough memory bandwidth for the textures and I’ve seen a lot of people complain about the in game performance specifically once you get into 4k resolution.
I can get the 4080 but thinking about spending a stack on a GPU sound crazy to me idk.I'm gonna use Cyberpunk as the baseline, because it's really hard to run (most games aren't this hard to run, but in the future they may be, so it's safe):

Any word on if it will drop down in price? I been using a GTX 970 since it first came out and been needing a upgrade for almost a decade
Likely next year when the 5000 series is about to come out. Some say the 5000 series won't happen until early 2025, but it could be Fall 2024.I can get the 4080 but thinking about spending a stack on a GPU sound crazy to me idk.

You might be able to find a used 4080 on ebay though. Somebody may have wanted to upgrade to the 4090 or 4090ti if/when it comes out.

Alright, So I found a reddit guide explaining the breakdowns. I didn't look into specs too much, but I built something out. Not sure about sound cards and wired/wireless network adapters.

You can get a brand new 3090 Ti on eBay for $800 right now. Depends on whether or not you care about having the latest.I can get the 4080 but thinking about spending a stack on a GPU sound crazy to me idk.

If you get a good enough mobo, it'll have a good soundcard and network adapter on it. I used to get fancy sound cards, but from an audiophile perspective (which I am), they are not good. It's much better to use an external dac and amp/headphone amp. I use usb out from my mobo to some Kef LS 50 Wireless speakers (which have the dac and amp integrated in them). For headphones, I either use my headphone setup (with my good dac and amp), or some wireless Audeze Maxwell heaphones.Alright, So I found a reddit guide explaining the breakdowns.

Anyway, the soundcard shouldn't be a big concern for you.
Also, your link isn't showing the parts you are trying to get, or at least I can't see them
Damn am I only one that game on 1440P ultra on here
