Hey I need a good gaming PC around this price range. Correct me if I'm wrong but this pc can handle 3 monitors, streaming with shadowplay, minecraft at max settings and shaders, modded Skyrim with ENBs and a ton of mods 100+ (really important), and then games such as LOL and CS:GO. I want to run those at ultra settings while streaming, will this build do that?

Solution
That will do more than you want it to do. The 970 is a powerful card especially if you are running three 1920x1080 displays. Thats what I use mine for
That is a good build. Two things though. The Cooler Master CM Storm Devastator can be a waste. The keyboard is awesome. The mouse is junk. Horrible mouse. Uncomfortable, buggy and easily broken. The next is that Power Supply Unit is not haswell ready. Could give you trouble. You could look into this Power Supply Unit.

I hope I was able to help.
