get a SSD, and a cooler and you should be good.

[R3DOPS]

ehh ok.. but  Intel Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor does not include a stock CPU cooler. Adding a CPU Cooler to your part list is recommended.

if you use the iGPU for quicksync it is. However for that price range, I honestly think you'd be better off with either a Xeon E3 1231 V3 if you wanted to save money, or an i7-4790k if you wanted full on performance. The extra multi-threaded performance would go a long way in the tasks you're looking to do.

 

That case is also a complete waste of money. You can get something great for $80 or less, like the Fractal Designs Define S.

btw, is it wise to get a hybrid drive?

a hybrid drive is ok

If you like wasting money and not getting as good multi-threaded performance. However in your situation, I'd probably do something like this:

is a multi threaded cpu gonna have big effect in game streaming?

big difference in performance compared to the 6600k?

 

and the reason im not going for a r9 390/ 390x is because i need the cuda core provided in nvidia cards, because some of the editing software i use needs the cuda core to run better.

If it's decent editing software, the R9 390's OpenCL acceleration will do better than the 970's Cuda acceleration. It would be strange for your program to not support OpenCL acceleration in this day and age.

 

For gaming/streaming if the streaming is CPU based and not using the iGPU (CPU based is how you should do it anyway), it will make a big difference. If you're doing heavy editing/rendering, you really should be going with the i7-5820k build.

will the r9 390 handle gameworks game well?

If you adjust the settings in Crimson to an override of max tessellation level of around 4x or 8x (if you don't mind the performance loss), it'll be fine.

**Minor editing**  I am going to upgrade to 16GB in a bit.  I'd say only upgrade to 16GB if you are using something like Sony Vegas on an average edit.  Then 32GB if it full blown 1440p rendering.  2 dual channel kits is pretty lame though for me.  I am spending around 80 quid just to get a quad channel kit.  Screw that crap.
