Here's a link to PC i think looks pretty good my budget is 1500(I know the price is more on there, and i'm trying to bring that down). I'm going to be using it for gaming and streaming. I really want to keep the video card and cpu the same. any suggestions for cheaper items and relatively same specs would be very appreciated. Any extra knowledge about PC's in general would be very appreciated(ex. compbatability, wiring, wattage), as this is my first time building a PC.

Better CPU cooler, and significantly better quality PSU.
 
Solution


Thanks for the suggestion, the only problem is that the video card is a custom part in PC Part Picker and i think it got bugged a bit when i updated the final price, it goes over my budget.(the video card is the GTX 1070, and when its released, it will cost $492). If there are any other other suggestions to help reach my budget, would be gladly appreciated.
 
Well the PSU isnt good. You are kinda wasting money putting an unlocked cpu on a non overlclocking board. I wouldn't touch a V300 with a 10ft pole.
