I found a site that looks good to me, did some research and have good recommendations. I would like opinions and takes on the build. I'm also open to see what builds you would recommend instead.

 

My biggest issue would be part availability and timing, that is why I'm open to having a company build and ship this to me. I'm trying to start streaming within 2-4 weeks.

 

Build wise I'm taking into account some future proofing, and I'm not sure if anything different is needed for video editing, I heard that takes "more" power and I plan on trying to diversify and do YouTube also, though I may not, just want to be prepared. Mainly focus on Gaming and Streaming.

 

  • Case - H710 Black - I really don't care what it looks like, just parts fit and room to upgrade

  • CPU - Intel I9 10850K - I want to future proof some so that's why the upgrade from I7

  • CPU Cooler - Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 Air - don't want the maintenance of Liquid and I've heard it's louder also.

  • Motherboard - ASUS ROG Strix Z590-E Gaming - I'm lost on Motherboards, they had two "cheaper" and one better, I like ASUS, my laptop is ASUS, had two, never any issues.

  • Memory (RAM) - 32GB DDR4-3200 - not sure if I should future proof with 64GB but I did look up and 3200 vs 3600 it wasn't worth the price difference for the very little benefit.

  • Graphics Card - NVIDIA RTX 3070 - I know I don't need 3090 and was even going to go 3060 but my brother talked me into 3070, he said it's enough of a difference to make it worth the price difference, I'm up to downgrade to 3060 or stay 3070 if more people recommend either.

  • Operating System Drive - 1TB NVME Solid State - they had 500GB and 2TB, just using as OS and basic stuff

  • Secondary Storage - 2TB SATA Solid State - Gaming and Streaming stuff

  • Tertiary Storage - None but maybe 1TB SATA Solid State - Home Office/Personal stuff - Taxes/Bills/Photos ext...

  • Power Supply - 1000@ Fully Modular, Gold Rated - has 750W first, they recommended for Gaming and Streaming at least 850/1000, they had more higher also

  • Operating System - Windows 10 Home - could go Pro, not sure if needed?

  • PCIE Capture Card - Elgato HD60 Pro - plan on streaming PS5/XBox and Switch also sometimes

  • Wifi Enabled (was an option, putting it here also)

  • No RGB stuff, not planning on having tower on stream, if I do, not worried about being flashy

I'm open to go over other parts and stuff for the actual streaming setup, lights, camera, mic, I'm working on researching those things also

 

Thank you all ahead of time for the help and opinions. I also know this may be a weird way to ask for build help but I know just enough to think I'm making good choices and screw stuff up. I also don't have time for full self build, unless you know where I can get parts quick, I want to get a certified company to build it.

You might want to then assemble the pc on their site and make sure they offer the parts you're looking for as your build list currently doesn't have any links or prices and some items don't have any specific makes or models.

I did build it on their site, they have all the parts and it's about $3800, that's also building it, and I think shipping.

I'm not super computer savvy, I was going Intel based on other recommendations, I did the build I have above, no the one you built as I would have to order parts and build myself,  with the same company using AMD parts that were "comparable" to Intel and it jumped to $4400 ish from the Intel 3800ish.
