Hello, everyone! This is my first time posting on this site. I just would like to hear some of you all's opinions on this build:

It is my first time ever building a computer, so I'm kind of a newbie at this, but it looks like a ton of fun and I can't wait to purchase all of my parts. I do a lot of video editing, gaming, recording, streaming, all that good stuff, so I need a new desktop to handle all of these demanding tasks with no problem. I think I did a pretty good job researching all the parts and learning about the nooks and crannies of PC building. So comment below your opinion, I'd love to hear from you!

 

Thanks,

 

McKinley

Not bad for a first timer, I would switch the PSU to something a bit higher quality and get either a 140mm air cooler or a 240mm AIO though. For example, the EVGA SuperNova 650 G2 and the Cooler Master Seidon 240M/Corsair H100i, or the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3/Noctua NH-D15.

I would try and invest in a duel fan RAD. The single RADs don't really perform THAT well and for the price of them, I would rather go with air cooling. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?
