Hi, it explains it in the title! Which GPU is best for my needs! No budget just want to know the cheapest card that can do all that I need! I will be gaming heavily on games such as Battlefield Hardline, Dying Light, CsGo, Arma 3 etc and o would want to play them on ultra 1080p. I will be doing lots of video editing, 3d rendering and also adobe work (After effects, Photoshop). I will be streaming the games I play and recording them too and will have a dual monitor setup. So please take these in consideration! Thanks ;)

- CPU great for video editing,rendering and streaming tasks and gaming in general (can't be overclocked)
- 16GB RAM for the same purposes mentioned above
- Graphics card ready for ultra at 1080p
- 2TB HDD for video editing purposes that could take a lot of space
- 250GB SSD to making everything load up a lot more quickly

i7-4790k with cooler alternative will add ~150 dollars to the costs. The result is that this CPU can then be overclocked if you wouldn't achieve the results you wanted anymore. Right now, it isn't necessary to overclock the CPU and the Xeon E3 would already be plenty.
