I recently got into pc building. I've been reading article and watching videos on how to build a brand new pc. First of all, I don't really care how my baby will look. As long as it runs every game perfectly and does the job im fine with it. I will use the pc to make youtube video and stream on twitch. My budget is 2250 tax included Canadian $, I also don't mind going a few $ extra for some better specs. I already own a keyboard and a mouse with a decent monitor, so it will be all about the tower. I will be buying parts of this computer before the end of September. I also have a man crush on this processor so ya guys. http://www.ncix.com/detail/intel-core-i7-5820k-3-30ghz-3-6ghz-32-100097-1292.htm.  If you guys have some idaes and some spare time. Help me out. Thanks alot.

I don't know man lol. as long as i can play and record im cool with it.

It's kind of important because if you have a 1080p monitor then a 980ti will be way overkill. However if it that's not an issue then it would be fine. If it's 4k then you might struggle to get 60fps so that might be an issue. You should probably find out the specs of your monitor.

Canada has a number of different tax rates. Subtract the tax from your budget figure and post that. I.E. post the tax excluded budget amount.

2125$ is my full budget excluding  tax. I also don't mind going a few dollars extra.

 

For gaming a Z170 system is better. It will do a decent job with light video editing.
