So I am trying to build my first PC in like 10+ years, and The market has changed a lot. I am building this PC for streaming, Gaming, and Editing videos. I'll be running a high res game like overwatch, fortnite, PUBG and recording it and streaming it. There is a great build out there right now from dell: http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-desktop-computers/xps-tower/spd/xps-8930-desktop/dxcwvmax001h?selectionState=eyJGUHJpY2UiOjExMDIuNDksIk9DIjoiZHhjd3ZtYXgwMDFoIiwiUXR5IjoxLCJNb2RzIjpbeyJJZCI6MTQ2LCJPcHRzIjpbeyJJZCI6IjVKTlROViJ9XX0seyJJZCI6NiwiT3B0cyI6W3siSWQiOiJHVDEwODAifV19LHsiSWQiOjc0OSwiT3B0cyI6W3siSWQiOiJDSTVTTUwifV19XX0%253D&prg=1&VEN1=12578053-7060520-48063e5c-d3b8-4d12-96ad-d748a84cc900&AID=7060520&dgc=CJ&DGSeg=DHS&cid=198375&lid=45846&acd=12309198375458460&VEN3=111404424588712168

and then I have my own build that I created for this based on some research: http://www.userbenchmark.com/PCBuilder/Custom/S67316-M347462.137575.426128.160390.89267vsS0-M?tab=MBD

I am having hard time deciding which one would fit my needs. Any help/advice would be helpful!

Thank YOu!

Nah, Ryzen stock cooler is much better than Intel junks. The Wraith MAX cooler is very good with LED.
coffee lake I5 only has 6 threads, not good enough to handle what you want to do with it. I will get this:

You may add HDD in the future. 8 cores and 16 threads can handle video editing and streaming pretty easily. If you need 4k editing, you'd better get 32 gb ram instead.

Ok got it so Ryzen 7 is probably better for gaming/streaming/ and editing. I would need the high end cooler for that too right since its up there with the I7?
