Hey people,
I'm trying to figure out a good build for a slightly overkill twitch streaming rig. I'm mainly playing titles like Overwatch and League of Legends, with the occasional higher end games like Battlefield.

This is what I have right now. My budget is $1900, not including peripherals like monitor and OS.

CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor ($328.89 @ OutletPC)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($23.75 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: MSI Z170A KRAIT GAMING 3X ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($106.88 @ OutletPC)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($167.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($94.89 @ OutletPC)
Storage: Seagate 4TB 2.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive ($147.10 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 1080 8GB STRIX Video Card ($690.58 @ Amazon)
Case: NZXT S340 (White) ATX Mid Tower Case ($66.69 @ SuperBiiz)
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($79.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Total: $1706.76

Any suggestions? I'm pretty new to this, and considering right now I'm streaming off an Athlon and a gtx750, not sure how much performance I would actually need for optimal streaming. Obviously not ideal on an Athlon though.

So, so close to perfect. I only have 2/3 changes and otherwise its great.

1. Maybe change the 212 EVO to a Cryorig H7
2. Change the mobo to a Asus Z170-A, the best-reviewed Z170 board out there (and MSI has really bad quality control)
3. Change the NEX PSU to a G2 or G3 instead. 650W is still fine but a 750W would be ideal.

No idea how you reply so here

CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor ($328.89 @ OutletPC)
CPU Cooler: CRYORIG H7 49.0 CFM CPU Cooler ($29.90 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: Asus Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($137.98 @ Newegg)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($167.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($94.89 @ OutletPC)
Storage: Seagate 4TB 2.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive ($147.10 @ Amazon)

Total is still under my budget, so maybe I'll throw in another storage option for a bit of flare :)
Thanks for the suggestion!
 


Make sure you get this PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438017

Im not sure if that one is it or not because it doesn't have "G2" or something like that.

Otherwise, good luck! :D

Just checked, it does have the G2 if you click on the description. Seems to be like the exactly same model 220-G2-0750-XR, but will make sure.
Thanx :D
