Hello,
I'm trying to build a computer that i'm going to be using for video editing, gaming, and livestreaming. And I need an opinion on this computer.

Not bad, definitely a solid build, all of the parts are high quality. What's your budget though? I might be able to get you better price per performance?

My budget is 1,400. Preferably without the rebates taken off.

Wait, so when you say preferably without the rebates taken off, do you mean preferably with rebates, or without rebates. Just double checking because you used a double negative, so I'm not sure which it is.

1,400 with no rebates, so the base price is 1400.

It all depends, but for now i'm thinking stuff like ARK, Starwars Battlefront, and Fallout.

ok then you are totally fine with those games, you'll run them at 60 frames for sure, good luck with everything

Unless you intend to do some heavy overclocking you don't really need a watercooler, though they do look nice. This is the build I'd go with, though yours would be just fine if you prefer it. Mine has a newer processor and motherboard, as well as DDR4 Ram instead of DDR3 RAM. Other than that it's basically the same.

No, I just wanted it because it looks cool 😛

ok good luck

To be fair watercoolers do look super cool, though your black and red themed build will still look pretty good with not quite matching cpu cooler. Plus you can always buy a watercooler later on if you want something that looks a little sleeker. Still you should get great performance out of your build and it should look cool to. Tell us how the build goes!

I will, just waiting until the black friday week to have time to get all the parts together, and make final adjustments until then.
