I actually do stream perhaps 2-3 times a week and do make the occasional guide on Youtube where I use Premiere Pro. So looks like I may go with the R7 2700 after all.

NGL I didnt realize this thread went onto a second page lol Good spot on the PSU. And yea the GPU i'll def have to pick one that works now. As the end goal is to eventually grab a better GPU. Someone mentioned grabbing the Ryzen 7 2700 but @remixislandmusic said at that point instead go with...

Wow I actually didnt realize the Ryzen 7 2700 wasnt that much more expensive than the R5 2600x. Ty for pointing that out. Again, I am not that great with PC specs but with this build later down the line (perhaps a year or two and after I decide to upgrade to an even better GPU/Monitor), would...

@remixislandmusic @King_V @punkncat thank you guys for all the advice you have offered. I compiled a list so far with the suggestions. I will be keeping my storage, monitor and case from my old build but will upgrade the rest of the parts. Theres a bit more wiggle room so I will def consider...

Ah thank you!

I really like your suggestion about grabbing the RX 570 and grabbing a newer GPU and new monitor down the line at the same time. I apologize as I am not familiar, which RX570 would you recommend? Looked into it and there's quite a few Radeon RX 570 manufacturers. Thanks!

What would you recommend for the PSU - TXM's wattage? Im putting some of the parts together on Part Picker and the estimated wattage is around 270 W so far. Idk if I should overshoot it a bit more (650 or 750) or stick with the 550 PSU?

Ok so I will def look into upgrading the PSU. I currently own that monitor and what was recommended for when I did that FX 6300 budget build. So if its better to either A) Get the monitor first and then upgrade GPU or B)Get GPU and then eventually upgrade monitor, I am open for the suggestion...

Monitor: This is what I have atm - Asus VX238H 23.0" 1920x1080 Monitor. I may hold off on this initially to help save at first but any recommendations to strive for are appreciated. PSU: Here is the exact one I bought - EVGA 500 W 80+ Certified ATX

As the title says, I am seeking advice, help, push in the proper direction, wake up call in regards to upgrading my old budget pc components. Starting to notice issues so it's about that time to start planning an upgraded build (ex: El Gato game capture device doesn't function bc of CPU, CPU...
