First Pc Build. Help me

Budget (including currency): $1000 US 

Country:  USA

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

OBS, DaVinci, Blender.

Games:

Skyrim, Minecraft, ROMs, Final Fantasy, Gmod, many others that are not notable like golf with friends. (Over all I plan to expand my library of games as soon as I get this pc done. )

Other details: 

I would like to at least play 1080p, 4K being amazing.

 

I mostly want to use this as a budget $1000 pc but of course I know to expect to pay more then that especially when I want lots of storage, a decent cpu and gpu, and other parts that are good so they last a long Time.

 

These pc parts are what I’m hoping can get me a pc that’s over all good with gaming/streaming at the same time and then using blender to make 3d models and animations while possibly also recording the process of doing so. I know this pc won’t be perfect but if I can have blender open and not crash as soon as I open it and my normal games I play not be stuck at a permanent 5-20 fps that would be amazing.

 

So please if you have anything you think I should change please tell me. I’m all ears.
 

Parts:

CPU: Intel Core i5-10600K 4.1 GHz 6-Core Processor

 

Cpu cooler: NZXT Kraken M22 Liquid CPU Cooler

 

Motherboard: MSI MPG Z490 GAMING PLUS ATX LGA1200 Motherboard


Ram: Crucial Ballistix 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory

 

Storage: TEAMGROUP MS30 1 TB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive

 

GPU: Zotac GeForce RTX 3060 12 GB GAMING Twin Edge OC Video Card

 

Power supply: EVGA SuperNOVA GA 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

 

Case:

(debating between the two)

Deepcool CK560 ATX Mid Tower Case

or

NZXT H510 Flow ATX Mid Tower Case (think I might go for this one due to the white case on the other is up more money then usual)

 

 

Please help me! What I use right now is a laptop from about 2013-2014 (around) that was made to be a office laptop mostly. I’ve always just dealt  with how horrible it was with gaming. The only other pc I have available to me is a pc from 2007, it’s from when I was younger and played disc games, the pc doesn’t work anymore due to most of the parts being dead and not worth trying to take any parts from. 

Again if you have anything to change please do tell me!

My recommendation.

CPU: why go for 10th gen CPU for about the same price as better 12th gen CPU.

No cooler needed for CPU, could always upgrade later.

Mobo: decent board with good IO ports 

RAM: cheap good RAM, CL18 too

SSD: good value SSD

GPU: better bang for buck than the 3060

PSU: 650w to suit your needs, 850w is overkill.

Case: personally I would find cheaper ones, but if you like the look, than go for it.

Not an expert, just bored at work. Please quote me or mention me if you would like me to see your reply. **may edit my posts a few times after posting**

About what id reccommend

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gzL9nt

There's not much of a reason to go previous gen, since current gen beats the 10600k easily

Stock cooler to save some money. It's pretty easy yo upgrade in the future if wanted 

Good board for the price

Cheapest kit of 32gb ram

Cheap 1tb storage

I usually reccommend amd gpus since their price to perfromance is way better than nvidias, the ampere gpus a way better at professional programs, so a 3060 is probably your best bet

Nice case and a decent 650 watt psu
