Gaming/Streaming Build yay or nay ?

nskceaj

Looks pretty good to me, would change a couple things though:

  1. I'd swap that SSD for a newer 730 Series, or a Samsung 850 EVO
  2. I'd take a more reliable hard drive like a Western Digital or an HGST
  3. I'd get 16GB of RAM, but that's just me, you might be able to manage with just the 8

QUOTE ME OR I PROBABLY WON'T SEE YOUR RESPONSE

I'd recommend 16GB of ram personally especially for encoding frames for streaming.

Would the 4770k be a good choice ? Since its 30 bucks cheaper and i could invest those into 16gb of ram

Also if you don't want the RAM right now you could get 1x8GB stick so you could upgrade later for cheaper :D

If you aren't using the integrated graphics (which you wont be) the 4770k is practically identical, or look at this comparison http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-vs-Intel-Core-i7-4770K

 

EDIT and this 

4.18 pt/$ vs 3.36 pt/$ Around 25% better performance per dollar

The chip was the only thing I bought used and it was from a vender in the u.s. with a solid approval rating and a money back guarantee. Not much risk, just bought them at the right time. What is your budget?
