Could anyone review this system? Mainly for some small gaming and streaming.

Hello friends!

I decided to build a system that would fit my budget, might not be as aesthetically pleasing with that white 1070 but I might start modding some stuff later on. The thing is, I'm a beginner. Obviously an i5-7600k and a gtx 1070 is gonna perform well enough but my question is, is it good enough for some small gaming and some streaming? Not really planning to play on 4k, or The Witcher on ultra settings. Might do some rendering but not as often. Every answer is appreciated! Thank you for your time.

The system you've compiled looks good. If you have a few more dollars, go for the 8600K.(2 extra cores for better multi-tasking and future demands)

Thanks a lot for the quick response! Seems like 20 bucks more could make a huge different, will keep that in mind.

One more question, any idea on how far can I go in terms of streaming quality? Or even recording. In casual games like Overwatch and PUBG would streaming be somewhat lag-free?

Unless you are going for a specific theme you might be able to find a more un-expesive Ram and you could maybe put it towards a better hard drive or cooler or something else. other than that its a decent build ...btw My God!!! Ram has gone up tremendously

If you are looking to stream/ content create on a budget you might be better off with a Ryzen Build

streaming quality depends on internet speed more or less you spec is good
