Make sure you add an SSD for your OS to your build. It will make a huge difference.

will a 120gb m.2 be enough?

Probably just go for the R7 1700 with an ASrock Pro4 given how cheap it is right now. Better to have the 2 extra cores for streaming.

Or buy a basic 1080p IPS diplay for now at around $100 and use that money on an R7 2700/X

Find an RX 580 that's $299 if you want free-sync. Prices went back up again I guess, 8GB ARmor OC here, maybe not the best heatsink, but at least it's 8GB

You want a 240GB SSD minimum.

1200 budget (I added a X470 motherboard to avoid headaches with BIOS updates and Ryzen+ support of older motherboards):

Personal opinion:

If you want longevity, go with the 2700.

Ryzen just doesn't offer as much performance as Coffee Lake, so for this I'd recommend going with a i5 8400 (cheaper CPU) and get a stronger GPU like a 1070/1070ti

Games are now supporting more and more cores, making more cores more relevant, and making single core performance a bit less important, and besides, between Zen+ and Coffee lake, the  single core performance difference is small.

EDIT:  The rig is also for streaming, which with the extra 2 cores, should be better.

Missing the case?

Go for this PSU, bit cheaper.

If you're getting a free-sync display you might as well get an RX 580

Looks good. I'd invest a little in an AIO though.

Ryzen crushes the i5 when it comes to out-of-the-box streaming. You can play around with a lot of settings to make it better, but if you can out-of-the-box it with AMD, why bother? The performance gains aren't that high.

 

Though you're cheaper route would be smart, with a Ryzen 1600/2600 subbed in for the i5.

Maybe worth living with a 1050ti then since 1060s/580s are overpriced still.

Medium settings mostly, just turn off shadows/AA and you'll probably be fine.
