Hey everyone!
Let me first thank you for your time and reading whatever is below!
So! I'm currently in the position to upgrade my current PC(Goes to my GF as I build my new one)

So the PC I'm building I'm having a few questions with, I've asked around and I keep getting different answers so it is really tough on sealing the deal for me as its a lot of money I'm dumping in.

So, The reason I want to build a new PC is simple, I want to start Streaming and do some video editing on the side. For me, it is important to lose as little FPS as possible while streaming but also maintain a smooth 60+ FPS.
I will be running the following games hopefully on the highest settings with 1080p/1440p settings.

Games like, Final Fantasy XIV / Battlefield 1 / GTA V / Diablo 3 / Overwatch
And games in those genres.

Current build

The questions that i have are quite simple.

1. Will this build do me right to stream 720P/1080P 60FPS?
2. Will i be able to run the latest games without any issue?

Alot of people told me this rig will do oke streaming but with struggle with games. Which i really can't believe...
Maybe older games? But even then i haven't played any games my current cpu I7-4770k+970 struggles with so far.
Sure i can't run most new games on ultra 1080P without dipping below 50 but for me so far it was always the case as long as i can play above 60+ FPS medium settings i'm happy.

Right now i'm aiming for Streaming @ 1080P 60 FPS While having most games on ultra preset.
Is this a realistic goal for this setup?

Some people argued to me that i should be getting the 7700k because its so much more powerfull, But i've seen people play games on 70-90% load while the ryzen isn't even touching 50% on those games which leaves me plenty of resources to stream with, Are these people just biased or am i missing something here?

And yes i've looked at so many different reviews and i just don't know what to believe.
Saw one guy that matched it up with a 7700k and it went head2head on most games, Losing 5-10 frames on some but the CPU load was 80% or higher for the intel one while the ryzen was just coasting through it without a single issue.

And other reviews about the same game it shows the intel blasting ahead with 30+ FPS more.
Help me out! Haha

Any changes or suggestion to the build are more than welcome!
I await your response and thank you for your time!
 
for the games u mentioned, streaming them in 1080p @ 60fps is a piece of cake for even this build :

i put in a 500gb ssd since i though that u would have multiple games in ur rig all the time.
the only game that may dip to 40-50fps in intense cases is gta V. u r good otherwise.

Hmm Good call on the storage, was planning to get my other SSD out of my old rig since i have two of them in there.
Do you think its worth the extra money going for the 1800x and future proof it?

Don't mind spending the extra money on it as i use my pc a hell of a lot haha.

Thank you!
 
1800X is a workstation class cpu with a bang for buck. but i would advice against a 1080ti without a g sync monitor cuz u would get screen tearing and flickering.

Wouldn't something like vsync take care of the tearing?
