[Sonefiler]

This is a really unbalanced build

[Guest]

$4200 to stream games ?  :wacko:

[Notree]

Overkill. Nice system tho. Any reason your getting 2 x 144hz screens other then to match? Id prob get a nice ips to go along side the benQ. Unless you plan on getting a third later.

[salecar3]

1. GET RID OF 5960X . second get basic i7 4770k and z97 a and i waod replace h100i with coler master nepton 240m.psu is overkill case as well.16gb of ram is fine since intense streams with games being played use aroubnd 12 gb of ram you can get a single 970

Yes probably, but I tough going with the 25UM65-P but i'll stick with these two because i'll probably do a 3 screen setup with a another 980
