$900 USD Gaming/Streaming build

TrixR4K1ds · January 28, 2015

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum but have been watching the youtube channel for quite some time and it really helps. I have request for the forum if people will please help. I'm needing help to build my brother a new computer for gaming and streaming. I have an idea what would be good but I just want to get professional advice from a PC tech forum. I will be trying to buy the parts sometime next week.

1. Budget & Location
My Budget is $900 Usd and location is United States, Nashville Tennessee.

2. Aim
This pc will be used for PC Game streaming and just plain gaming as well. Mostly at 1080p. Most gaming and streaming will be for League of Legends or Dota 2 or any other Moba, Any RTS games, And any PvP oriented game.Sorry for being vague.

3. Monitors
Just 1 monitor at 1920x1080

4. Peripherals
I just need an OS I believe no need for mouse or keyboard. Preferably an OS that will support games well.

5. Why are you upgrading?
I am not actually upgrading just doing a build for my brother so he can stream.
