So I've been looking at buying a PC to livestream with and play some PC games as I heard the quality of image is much better than console. 

 

I'm not too clued up on PC hardware so I don't know if this is good?

 

Corsair Carbide 330R Asus Z97 Motherboards Intel Core i7 4790K overclocked up to 4.6GHz Thermalright HR-02 Macho CPU Cooler 16GB (2x8GB) Corsair Vengeance Pro, 2133MHz 4GB EVGA GTX 970 600W Corsair CX, Semi-Modular, 80PLUS Bronze 250GB Samsung 840 EVO - 540MB/s Read, 520MB/s Write, 1TB Seagate Barracuda, 7200rpm, 64MB Cache

 

 I want to use this pc to livestream in 720P 60FPS not sure if I could with this or not? 

 

Please remember that this will be my first 'proper' PC so I want it to be decent :)

Looks good. However, do not expect your 4790K  to OC to 4.6 on air. At 1080p, you should be able to hit max setting on pretty much any game with a 970.

Should I get a Corsair H80 hydro cooler instead then?

I'd love to buy it and build it myself but I don't trust myself at all! 

It's so hard to mess up though

I think it's because I don't know where any of the electrical wires go and I don't know how to overclock myself. Yes I am new to this haha
