I'd swap out that 8600 for the 8400, change the motherboard to a B360 or H370 as it won't work with that Z170, then use the savings to get a larger SSD (240+).

im looking to start streaming with this pc so wouldnt the 8600 be better in that aspect and why would i need 240+ssd is 120 not enough?

The difference between the 8400 & 8600 is a few hundred mhz and is more then likely not worth the cost difference performance wise. As for the SSD even if you only keep the OS on it after updates and such it will fill up quite fast and if it does then the speed will drastically slow down.

Thank you very much, i appreciate the comments, and would u say the pc is good enough for streaming esport games such as fortnite csgo etc and mainteane a consistent fps of around 100 with medium graphics?

Hello cretancornel, just wanted to share the data sheet for the Seagate BarraCuda 6TB drive you are looking to purchase for your new gaming rig. If we could suggest as well take a look at out Hybrid drives. They combine speed and storage and should fit within your budget.

It's only a 1TB drive however the OP could go with Intel Optane which may be a cheaper option over the 240gb SSD and would speed up the HDD quite a bit.

Intel optane 16gb or 32gb?

Optane= blatant intel cash cow with low price/performance ratio.

Would not bother.

Stick with the original idea , 8400 & a 240gb ssd with a 1tb secondary.

Should be pretty much anyones preffered drive setup at a minimum.

What about the HDD?

 

[madmatt30]

Keep the rest of your original list - hard drive & case , what I listed are the components id change.

By my reckoning , even with the 1070ti the total is about the same.
