I would like to have suggestions on what computer build to get. Including 1 monitor, preferraly with g-sync. that can RECORD any game while running 60 fps minimum (at ultra settings). And being able to render/edit videos (so perhaps an i7 cpu).

I would like to have a build for this purpose as my current laptop (750M gpu :/) is not even close to handling this at all...

The price of the build would be how the price ends up. Although I would like to have the build "ready" to expand to 1440p (planning on doing after summer 2016). Thanks in advance to anyone sending your suggestions!

I don't like doing desicions :D, afraid doing the "wrong one".

The hd pvr rocket can "only" record 1080p 30fps though, and this build will do fine over 60fps while recording with dxtory (as I have).

So the 5820k then? Probaly I will go for a x99 build (ASUS x99-a) as it was recommended on another build I unfortunately was not allowed to get (but my father thinks this one seems promising. Look at Phil's answer a little down the 2nd page regarding the x99 msi vs x99 asus:

This is about how it looks now (after my choices), please tweak around and suggest things that are overkill/underkill for 1080p 60 fps while recording, but keep in mind that I want it possible to upgrade to a 980ti later:
