Please don't spend $780 on a 3060, it's really not worth that. You'd be better off with a 1080 Ti off eBay for that price. Your storage configuration is a bit odd, if you have a reason behind it, sure. You probably don't need to spend that much on a motherboard, but then again I did, so I can't really fault you if you do. 

 

Everything will work together just fine, there's just a bunch of odd choices. Also is there a reason you're trying to spend exactly $3000 on a system? you could probably drop a few things down (you probably don't need 64GB of RAM) and make room for a 5950X or a better video card in that price range.

Didn't include GPU, due to market right now. Not sure what you can get in your part of Canada, but it's pretty tough to find Nvidia cards in Canada in general. Left about 1200 CAD for the GPU, find the best GPU around that price and you're good. I would go for a RTX 3070/3080 if you can. You can also consider Radeon 6700XT/6800XT, but I'm not sure how well they do with streaming.

Much reasonable list.

List OP had looks very odd 😄

 

Only thing I would change here is Case, If RGB needed, I would get 4000X and one fan. Or different case, That comes with good RGB fans, Or don't include fan at all/Include 1-2 fan and get RGB fans.

That's all. 6700XT seems to be available for that price range, So it's definitely much better than 3060.
