Budget Range:
$600-$800
If possible, I'd like 2 or 3 different options per part.
System Usage:
I'm going to use it for gaming but I'll be video editing from time to time.
The games will be like CSGO/Just Cause 3/High graphics MMO games.
I also stream and record gaming videos sometimes.
Current Setup:
Case - Antec Three Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower
CPU - Intel Core i5-3570K
GPU - MSI GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB
Mobo - ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155
Ram - Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB
Why I want to upgrade:
Case - What's the most spacious cases I can get? I'd like more space inside the case.
CPU - I plan to stream more. I'll be video editing more in the future too. Should I buy a CPU like a Xeon or I7?
GPU - Should I upgrade to a 970 anytime soon or is the 660Ti still more than good enough right now?
Mobo - If I buy a new CPU, I'd like a compatible motherboard for the new CPU.
RAM - Does upgrading from 8 -> 12 or 16 GB make a big difference?
Where to spend the budget:
I'd like it to be spent where people think will create the biggest performance difference for the computer.
Overall, I'd like if the 700 was spread between the 5 parts but if it's not possible,3 of the parts would be good.
The case would be the least important part for me.
Preferred Websites for Parts:
Microcenter/Newegg/Amazon/Well known websites.
Location:
Minnesota, United States
Parts Preferences:
No AMD please, I am not familiar with any parts from them.

I am planning to buy a 144hz monitor. I'd like the parts to be able to support it and a 60hz monitor.
