Ladies and Gentlemen,
I've decided to build my own computer for the first time. I have a rough budget of around $2000 to include dual monitors. Yesterday I spend (a little) amount of time on pcpartpicker.com making what I think would be sufficient.
The purpose of this build is to meet my needs of gaming new games on high to ultra, streaming/making videos of said games, meet my stock watching needs, and general use as well. Obviously, the most taxing things for this build are going to be the gaming/streaming and minor video editing that I may need to do.
I wouldn't worry too much about making it a super video editing box because I won't be doing too much of that; plus I don't really know what I'm doing with it anyways lol.
Below is what I've come up with so far, and most of it is newer stuff including DDR4 ram just because I want it, and future proof the stuff. A final note is that I plan on OCing the components too. I look forward to hearing what you have to say about it! Thanks

PS... I didn't include an SSD because I've already got a 500GB Samsung 840 EVO that I plan on using.
