New PC Build: Advice wanted!

Hello! I am looking to build a PC. This is my first time building a PC, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Budget: I would like to stay below £700 (GBP) but I am willing to go up to about £800 if the performance increase is significant.

Use: I would like to stream whilst gaming. I'm not an avid gamer, so I don't really care about the highest FPS, but I would like games to run well at decent graphics. The games I would like to play aren't too intensive: Overwatch, Minecraft, Fortnite, etc. (will definitely get more games when I get the build, I'm new to PC gaming). I would also like to do some video editing on this. Probably not 4K, but it's a possibility in the future.

Monitors: I'm only using one 24" 1080p monitor at the moment, but there is always the possibility that I add another one in the future.

 

Peripherals: I already have a mouse, monitor and keyboard, but I will probably upgrade as they aren't great.

 

Why am I upgrading?: I am currently using an old HP laptop that doesn't suit my needs: it can't game whatsoever and the video editing performance really doesn't work for me.

The build I have seen on PCPartPicker looks good to me, but I would like to know if you think it would suit my needs.

 

Once again any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

That's good, but i think it's better if you use 3600 instead.

OK, I swapped it out, but it returned this:

"Some AMD B450 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Matisse CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions."

Would this be a problem? How would I solve this?

 

Thanks again for the help ?
