Sorry it's my first time picking parts for a pc. I want this pc to be able to edit,stream, and game!

 

[N3rdR4ge]

here is another build for you. no overclocking needed, small form factor, good at editing, and a excellent video card.

Sorry for asking so many questions but can this run all new games at least high settings 60+ FPS?

 

[N3rdR4ge]

oh itll run them better than that. itll have no problem with ultra maxed out settings at 1080p with 50+fps.

the xeon processor is basically a non-overclocking version of the i7-4690k, helping to bring down the price.
the xeon processor does not have onboard video like the i7-4690k, also helping to bring down the price.

 

[InsaneGuy437]

Thanks man. Also later in the future what cpu & gpu should I get next?

 

[N3rdR4ge]

there isnt a cpu/gpu out there yet worth the upgrade from what i made you (based on your budget). that should last you at least 3 or more years.

-the xeon is still a very strong, top of the line processor.
-the r9 390 will last a long while with its 8gb vram. the newest games only take 5gb vram max on 1080p.

those are both high quality parts.

 

[InsaneGuy437]

Also I am wondering if there is a way to make it under $1000?

 

[N3rdR4ge]

changed the ram to 8gb and removed the cd/dvd drive. the msi r9 390 is a few $ cheaper. keep in mind 16gb is optimal for editing, but you can buy more or change it out easily later. you can always add the dvd drive later too. that is the least important part. everything can be downloaded these days. made a few other tweaks.

even though this is in your price range and will work flawlessly, i highly recommend saving the extra 70 for the previous xeon build i linked if you want the most out of your money.

 

[InsaneGuy437]

Can I change the mobo to asus b85m-r 2.0? Then should I get a cpu cooler and overclock?

 

[N3rdR4ge]

you can't overclock the xeon.
