Can anyone help me get the best possible black friday pc?

RedEagle_P1

Budget (including currency): $2000 CAD is a MAX but I would love for it to be a lot less!

Country: Canada

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: 

Streaming a game, recording a podcast and recording video all at once.

- Streamlabs OBS

- OBS to record

- Audacity for audio

- My own game

--------

I will video-edit separately in Adobe Premiere or Davinci Resolve

 

Other details: 

Stores all around me are doing the hard-sell on some super expensive motherboards and coolers. I wanted to double check with people smarter than me to make sure its not just a sales tactic from them. 

 

I would like either a i7-12700KF or the Ryzen 9 5900X. 

 

I already have:

So basically all I need is: 

 

CPU

Cooler

Mobo

 

My question is, what Mobo is the minimum spec for a processor like this? 

What cooler is the minimum spec for someone who has no overclocking desire? 

I'd love a 4K monitor in there too (again lowest cost possible). I don't need great FPS but I need accurate colors.
