PC Build Help

[//FTP]

This is my first time building my pc and I don't know what to get. I would like to have a pc that can stream 4k movies and tv shows onto a 4k tv. I would also like it to be able to get around 60 fps on Ark: Survival Evolved (high or ultra settings) (Yes, I know it is very graphics heavy, but hopefully that will change). My budget is $1350 and it doesn't include any peripherals.  The color scheme of this build can be red and black, white and black, or red and white.

 

Thanks for the help in advance, 

Scott

Do you have a specification of amd or intel?

you can spend the other 150$ wherever you please - monitor (2nd one if you got one), better SSD, better case, more RAM - your choice.

Wow guys, thanks! That was a quick reply! Some great builds out there!

Intel.

Intel.

for CPU you are guaranteed to be going intel. For GPU I'd suggest a Fury over a 980. - quite a bit better.

Ok, thanks for the heads up. Is the Fury better than the 980 at cooling? Finally, what is the maximum temp a computer can be, while still being safe?

The Fury's cooling is fine thanks to the much beefier Sapphire Tr-X cooler. The temps on both cards will be the same. The 980 can reach 87*C before thermalthrottling whereas the Fury can go to about 85*C I think. Not sure. Both will stay cool but the Fury will be 15-20% faster on average.

The CPU can reach 100*C before shutting down but keep it bellow 80*C
