Would this set up work

[Kyle Dawson]

Hey guys I was just wondering if all of this goes together well and have I got all the right things to have a PC. Like for example am I missing anything crucial for the PC to work (other than the OS as I know that) but please let me know if this all goes together well and if I am missing something crucial. Thank you so much.

The build looks good for gaming however with such a high end build you really should have a SSD for at least the OS. Also with Coffeelake out now the 8600K/Z370 motherboard would be a better choice price/performance.

I will be using my PC for streaming and editing 100% so would you just recommend keeping this build? And also what do you mean by having an SSD for at least the OS, are you able to elaborate on that I would really appreciate it.

What is your budget? Also I meant adding in a 240gb+ SSD for the operating system as it will be much faster over that HDD, also will help with some games that have really long loading screens.

Well I am trying to hover around mid 2600$ aud and this currently is almost spot on that. Can you give me an example of a cheap but effective SSD? And are you saying take out that HDD and replace it with an SSD that you're going to use as an example or?

 

[WildCard999]

No I meant for going with a SSD & HDD for storage. Also depending on if you want to overclock you could even go with the 8700 (or K version for OCing) which is a 6 core with 12 threads which would be plenty for gaming/streaming.

Thanks for that, I will add that SDD as well, as for doing the other upgrades it actually works out to be a little more expensive doing that as I am in Australia and it's different prices, so if I add that SSD you think that should be perfect for gaming, streaming and editing?

 

[WildCard999]

Yea that would out well.

 

[Kyle Dawson]

Thank you very much WildCard
