Gaming/Streaming computer setup

[am10159]

Here are the parts I am looking at buying:

CPU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115229
MOBO: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121552
RAM: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104313
Video Card: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814162085
SSD: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148442
HD: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822145304
PSU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817189027

I am going to be streaming in 1080p while I play starcraft 2 on extreme graphics. Will these be a good enough setup?

I think the graphics card is a bit weak I suggest getting this or better 7850 http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102998 to get the funds get the i5 instead of the i7.

I don't think an i5 will cut it for 1080p multibitrate streaming

I don't think a GTX 560 will either.

I am considering upgrading the card, but I won't downgrade the CPU

Do you think the Radeon HD 7850 will cut it? 2GB GDDR5

Hi

Not really, its only slightly better...

The advice we give customers in my shops about a gaming machine is this...

Add up the TOTAL cost of everything you are going to buy and then spend another 50% of that total on the card...
