So like the title implies, I have done a lot of research on what i wanted for a gaming/livestreaming build, and I think that this is going to give me the best bang for my buck, but i want to know what you all think? is there something that i should swap out or any tweaks that would make this better? will all these components work together? want to use this as my final check on everything!

The goal of the build is to play all games on High/ultra at +60 fps while straming to twitch.tv/shotgunrumble with amazing quality.

plus i have picked different componenents that would look good with a panel becasue i plan on replacing the mesh on the case with plexiglass :)

as for the amount of stuff you want to do i would go dual asus gtx 970 strix graphics cards they a better build quality metal back plates and take only 1 8pin power connector and go for 16gb quad channel ram just to have the extra amount for the amount of usage overall

out of all my reseacrch the windforce runs cooler an has more overclocking potential? the the windforce also has a backplate and is very stout, plus it has the 3 display outlets for vs the 1 display port that the asus card has? can you throw me some specs to support that the asus card is better than the gigabyte?
