Hey guys, I need your help for a mid-range decent Streaming/Gaming PC. Feel free to suggest a recommended build :D

I'm from Singapore btw so Price wise with the US shouldn't be much of a difference.  I'll just be playing normal games like League,CS;GO,GTA V,Battlefield, yea you get it.

Thanks for the help guys !!

"The games I will be playing won't be that taxing." Well, some of those games actually are taxing. But to go onto your question, would you want to play on ultra settings or medium or so?

Might wanna jump up to a 750W PSU just for some more headroom.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Nope, no point

That system uses 450 W, so you'd want a 500 W PSU, therefore I got 600 for this OC headroom
