Hello!
My name is Ethan, and I'm 14 and I have been wanting to start up a YouTube channel for quite some time now, and I just couldn't with the computer I have now (it served me well for about 5 years). I was wondering what your opinions for what i should upgrade and all that jazz. I will be needing mostly computer upgrades, but if you have some mouse or keyboard suggestions those will be appreciated. Also maybe a second monitor if I still have some cash 😀 I am hoping to be able to record and stream on 1080p at 60fps. Another thing, is please no AMD. I have had bad experiences with them. I also just prefer nVIDIA and Intel. One last thing. Everything I will be buying, I sell the older part. Kinda obvious, but who cares 😛 So my budget is around $1000 CAD ($755 USD) and I will give you the prices for how much I could get from selling my parts (according to ebay).
My current PC & Stuff:
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 @3.40GHz -$60-80
GPU: Radeon HD 5670 Sapphire 1GB GDDR5 OC'd to the max -$50
RAM: 16GB Corsair VengeanceLP -$125
MOBO: (this is what it says on the box) Asus M4A79XTD EVO -$50-75
PSU: CoolerMaster eXtreme Power Plus 550W -$85
CASE: NZXT Hades Crafted Series HADE-001BK Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower -$70 on newegg (couldn't find it on Ebay)
MOUSE: GX GAMING GILA -$70
KEYBOARD: Some Staples keyboard my friend gave me after i split water on my Roccat Isku -$? I It's a Staples keyboard... It's probably like 5 bucks.
SCREEN: Gateway FHX2402L BID 24" LED Monitor -$100? (23" is $90 so this is just a guess)
HEADPHONES: Corsair Vengeance 1500 -$35
Extra:
XFX GeForce GTX 285 (my friend gave me it, even though the 5670 is better) -$60
TOTAL: $730 USD (well around that mark i think)
So $1485 USD for a whole PC and peripherals (but I don't think I will have to sell EVERYTHING, but who knows :3)
ALL PRICES I GAVE ARE EXPRESSED IN USD TO MAKE IT EASIER 😀
Also if you have any corrections for the prices, then feel free to tell me 😀 I'm just using what they are listing for on Ebay :3
I'm hoping i would be able to get an i7-4790k and a GTX 980 but i think I'm setting my sights way to high 😛
For mouse and keyboards, I really have a thing for Razer 😛
For the case, just get something with good airflow, and looks sweet. I like this kinda style, but those cases are just to damn expensive xD
