Ok so I have had the same pc for the last 3 years (and it was second hand when I got it) and I think it is time for and upgrade. I have an idea 

but I would like to get some fresh eyes to have a look at it. The build will be about $900 and I will be gaming, recording, live streaming, photo

editing and music editing. The build is https://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=wish_lists&wlcId=258475&action=wish_lists and all the parts have to be from this website http://www.pccasegear.com/.

 

And as always you stay classy linustechtips forums  B)

it's a nice build but I would change that gpu with a normal 270. the only difference is that the 270x is higher clocked so you could oc the 270 and get 270x performance :)

this would be the gpu that I'd get:http://au.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-video-card-r9270acdfc

also, it looks that is the only avaible at pccasegear

 

and with the $40 that you saved, you can get a bigger psu, or a better cooler ;)

The 270 that's available doesn't have as good of a cooler. There were pros and cons going with either the 270 or 270x so I picked the one with a better cooler on a whim. Both are valid choices.

 

This , But keep the noctua cooler in IMO , It's 20Dollars more but it's silent and performs better.

Not worth the extra money imo but it's up to the OP if quiet is a factor. The 212x is far from loud as well.

It's one of my favorite looking coolers as well right under the Twin Frozr IV.
