Taking into account what I learned from my last topic on this, I changed up a few things:

  • Changed my 4790K to a 5820K

  • Switched out my EVGA GTX 970 ACX 2.0 Video Card for this one, which seems to be better

  • Got an SSD

  • Switched out my monitors and RAM to be a little cheaper.


I'll restate this again: I'm using this for gaming, streaming, recording, and rendering and editing videos. I have not bought any of these parts yet.

I am missing a few parts, and I'd like suggestions on what I should get, while still keeping it at least below $2000 dollars.
  • Power Supply (Still not sure on what voltage to get without destroying everything, or what brand.)

  • Optical Drive (I'm not sure if I need one, but I'd like one for discs and CDS and etc.)

  • Case (I've been trying to find a blue LED one, so I'd appreciate it if it did have that. Along with that, I also want the fans to be pre-installed, and for me to be able to put in an optical drive.)


I'm keeping the CPU, GPU, and SSD set in stone though.
