Thoughts on my 750 build

[JGamingToo]

This is going to be my first build for editing videos for YouTube and gaming. I need some final thoughts and tips on parts I should get for this build. I am trying to keep this build under $750 (id prefer under 700 but I can manage). I have already bought the RAM, Case, DVD Drive, PSU, and Cpu fan. I just need thought on the other parts that are left to buy. I dont want to go over $750 to get the price under 700 dollars I am willing to take some frames away for price. All of the parts are being bought from Amazon and Newegg

Intel Core i3-4170

CM Hyper 212 evo

Gigabyte HA-H97M-HD3 Micro ATX

Should get an i5, or potentially an 8320e if you're going to be doing streaming

I would have suggested saving a buck or 2 and not getting a dvd drive.. But you have already purchased that. 

 

Is this something you will potentially upgrade in the future?  That's generally when I recommend an i3.. if not, I would try to go up to at least an i5 4460 and maybe offset the cost with a cheaper motherboard

i already bought the psu, case, ram, cpu cooler and dvd drive but thank you for the rest of the list will definetly consider some new parts

You know, people always recommend the i5 but right now the i3 holds its own in gaming fairly well too.  A couple months ago I put together a system for a friend of mine with an i3 and a gtx 950 and he's perfectly happy with it.  Granted he is coming from a pentium 4 so almost anything would have been a major improvement.. but he plays games like dying light and 7 days to die just fine with it.
