Can someone build me a gaming pc?
I will mostly be using it for gaming obviously but I have a youtube channel and it needs to be able to work well with my Razer Kraken Pro headset, and have some video rendering capabilities.

What about sound cards? I do some recording for my Youtube Channel and I need a good port compatible with a Razer Kraken Pro.
I have been picking parts out of both of the builds suggested and it seems to be coming along nicely.
