First PC build for Streaming

[UnrealisticDreamer]

Budget (including currency): 1800$ USD

Country: India

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Streaming, Editing and Games like R6S, Valorant, Minecraft and maybe a few more similar games.

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): This is my First time building so i don't have much idea about the Spec requirements, but I would like to Stream games and edit videos using this build and hopefully leave some room for upgrades in the future. Any kind of tips would be helpful. :)

Upgrade CPU cooler, 212 evo black is good. Upgrade Psu to 650 700W, that 2TB HDD? just get 7200RPM 5400 is disgusting and will cause problems in modern windows. CL16 ram is plenty fast enough and if you can swing a GPU upgrade streaming will be smoother with nvidia encoding.

 

stream around 60fps most games no problem, not the newest gen or super damanding titles, though possibly with a good overclock(ONLY W higher Wattage PSU).

What would you suggest for the GPU upgrade? 

Also Thanks a lot!

3070 or 3070TI, watch your power draw if you do, I suggest a power supply calculator for your final decision/buildout. PSU over minimum necessary amount by 200w or so is good for efficiency/power bill as well.

I would upgrade the cpu (5600X or i5-10400F), the motherboard (B550, for AMD. B560, for Intel), and the psu (Corsair RM 650-750W 80+ Gold PSU). Make sure if you're getting a regular hard drive that it's 7200RPM and not 5400RPM. 7200RPM is much faster. To accomplish all of this, maybe downgrade the graphics card. Would recommend a GTX 1660 SUPER or a RTX 2060.

 

If this is a prebuilt btw, you'd be better off with something from newegg or something. Any company pairing a poor psu with a build like that, doesn't know what they're doing tbh.

Is Downgrading the GPU going to create some sort of adjustments with streaming or gaming that i will have to manage?

I mean a RTX 3060Ti is super powerful, and that psu you currently have in your list will definitely NOT support it. You'll have better performance with a more moderate graphics card, like a GTX 1660 SUPER or RTX 2060, and a more powerful cpu (6 cores > 4 cores).
