Alright here you go, if you have a 500GB or 1TB hard drive laying around, I can swap the HDD in there for an SSD.

Make sure to use the GPUs hardware encoder for streaming and game recording, that way you won't notice any lagging compared to CPU based encoding.

I also put a little bit more money into the case so you have a great upgrade path later on.
