Hello, I'm looking to build a new pc thats geared towards streaming and video editing, gaming is secondary (or tertiary if you wanna look at it that way). My main issue is that I'm not sure what motherboard to get so I decided to go with the one in my list below. As for the CPU, I settled for the i7 12700k as I found after a lot of looking around that it apparently does everything I want and more when it comes to the editing and streaming. is this a good choice or is there a better option for the cpu? Here is my build below from PCPP, I do realize there is no GPU in that list, and the reason that is, is because I am looking to purchase an Nvidia 50 series card which I believe is coming around this fall or next winter/spring. I went with the fans and cpu cooler because it matches the case and I think itd look nice aesthetically, that said it probably may not be ideal, could probably find something as good or better for less, would appreciate any insight on this. Thank you for any and all feedback and advice.
My budget is around $3k
