First time ever build need help!

[Krizdiz]

Well before i get started ill describe the situation

Budget:1000$ absolute max

What i need: literally everything i have no case, monitor, or even keyboard but i do have a really bad HP mouse (so i may need a mouse)

I have zero idea what I am doing and have been watching a ton of PC videos and tips. So far I do not really understand what i need to do. I would like to build a desktop to get a you tube and a Twitch going So it should be powerful enough to play AAA titles well and still be able to use editing software as well as stream. I would like to be able to play the games with very good performance as well as having decent graphics. So some extremely good value PC. I would like the best value for all the parts to make the best PC for the money put in. ( with intentions of upgrading as my wallet allows, and as time goes ). If possible some nice headphones, microphone as well as webcam suggestions would be great. 

To sum everything up any tips welcome, Maybe a nice push into the right direction, An explanation of like everything i should know, and maybe some just overall help lol. 

 

Thank you

CPU: 4 Core, 8 Threads, price of an i5. The best budget streaming and editing CPU you´ll ever find.

RAM: 16 GBS just a necessity if you plan on streaming or editing. It heps out more than you´d think.

GPU: Can´t do much better than the 390 at this price range. Might be worth waiting for the 1070 or Polaris though, if you can afford to wait.

PSU: Just a solid, quality unit. You´ll find no problems with it.

Just some general tips about choosing parts overall:

Be objective, don´t pick parts solely on brand name. Look at what it can offer, and whether it suits your needs.

Never skimp out on the PSU, the worst thing you could possible do. That being said, don´t end up paying a fortune for one. With some effort, you can find quality units for a good price.

The efficiency rating of a PSU =/= quality. Do not pick a PSU based on it´s electrical efficiency alone.

An SSD is not necessary for a build. It should only be added as a luxury, and if the budget allows.

RAM =/= More performance. 8 GBS is enough for gaming. 16 GBS for editing, rendering, and streaming. There are use case scenarios for editing, rendering, and streaming that´ll make more ram useful however.

Don´t get a V300.

Make sure the build has balance. Don´t pour all your money into one part, and leave the rest sub-par.

I would hope so. I spend way too much time making part-lists and being on this forum.

[shadowbyte]

Welcome to the forums!

Alright, here we go.

I've created a parts list that comes to just under 1,000 dollars that includes a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and tower. 

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/4ZZnmG

Intel is the way to go for now, as AMD doesn't have any compelling CPUs that can compete with Intel at the moment.

I went for skylake because it's the newest and supports DDR4, which will become the standard eventually. 

Since the stock cooler is shit, I added a Pure Rock from be quiet, which will help if you ever feel the need to upgrade to a 6600k or 6700k.

Speaking of the upgrade path, I went for a Z170 board because you get many more features, such as more SATA ports, and the ability to overclock if you ever want to get a k-series CPU.

8GB of RAM is pretty cheap these days, so I went for that.

Mass storage is handled by a 1TB WD blue. If you want to, you can ditch the CPU cooler, stick with stock, and get a 120GB ssd as a boot drive.

The 4GB R9 380 is a very compelling value card at the moment. With 4GB of VRAM, this card is great at 1080p, and will even do well at 1440p.

The case is very subjective, but I happen to like the look of NZXT's S340, so I chose that. You can go in and change it to whatever you like, though.

As a PSU, I went for an RMx series PSU, as it's the most important component of your system, and 750w gives you headroom for a better GPU or CPU in the future.

Windows 10 can be had for around 30 dollars of kinguin.net, saving money there.

I chose the AOC i2367Fh because it's 1080p, IPS, and has a 60hz refresh rate. That, and it's nice and cheap.

The CM storm devastator combo isn't the greatest, so feel free to get better peripherals, but should serve you well in the beginning. 

Please, whatever you do, don't cheap out on the PSU. Your entire system is at stake if that thing fails, and will be an expensive mistake. 

If you think you'll never get a k-series CPU or need the features of Z170, go for a cheaper H170 or H110 board and put that money into a case, peripherals, or SSD.

As for headphones and the like, I don't know much, but here are my recommendations.

Headphones: Audio Technica ATH-M50X, HyperX cloud 2's

Microphones: Blue snowball

Webcam: Logitech C920

I also highly advocate for IPS monitors, as they offer much better color representation and viewing angles, and just look better.

Finally, don't buy a 1ms response panel if it means sacrificing IPS or resoultion. In actual gaming, you'll be hard pressed to notice a difference, and it's not worth it imo.

I don´t think a 6500 is going to be his best choice if he wants to stream. And over priced PSU. Also this is a $1000 build. For shame no SSD.

Well I understand CPU and RAM I think but could anyine explain what uses everything has, Also whats the diffrence for the amount of cores how will that effect what im planning on doing.( so what helps what?) im very sorrybut im trying to understand what this is so i dont mess u. many apologizes.

possibly just buy the Devstator II combo from coolermaster for your keyboard mouse

it includes a 1080p 144hz free-sync display, you could also always wait to see polaris, info comes june 1st

the display is going to be TN so it'll have worse color reproduction than IPS, but with the 144hz refresh rate it more than makes up for it

• The NZXT Source 210 Elite (White) ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 330mm long, but video cards over 230mm may block drive bays. Since the PowerColor Radeon R9 390 8GB PCS+ Video Card is 305mm long, some drive bays may not be usable.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/t9NJzy When i saw this not in combatability is it a bad thing?

 While this build 

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/4ZZnmG seems different which is the better bang for the buck?

Then here you go for gaming

 

possibly just buy the Devstator II combo from coolermaster for your keyboard mouse

it includes a 1080p 144hz free-sync display, you could also always wait to see polaris, info comes june 1st

the display is going to be TN so it'll have worse color reproduction than IPS, but with the 144hz refresh rate it more than makes up for it

So this build would be for gaming purposes only?

It's just focused on gaming with the 144hz display and all that. Mostly useful if you're into like esports type games that the extra physical frames will help with.

 

Otherwise I'd get an i7 6700 so you never have to replace your CPU, with a 1080 IPS display

There's also still room for like a higher end PSU or Case or something

Would this be fine for streaming and editing?

Well I understand CPU and RAM I think but could anyine explain what uses everything has, Also whats the diffrence for the amount of cores how will that effect what im planning on doing.( so what helps what?) im very sorrybut im trying to understand what this is so i dont mess u. many apologizes.

i5s and i7s have the same ammount of cores, the i7 just has more threads.

 

and ya an 8 thread CPU would be better for streaming/video editing. Course X99 would be better, but then you'd have to really cut corners in other places

 

Also

What excatly does it mean to have more threads?

You can do more tasks at once basically, most games today use 4 threads.

Like even though FX 8 cores have worse single threaded performance than an i5, if you say do streaming with both chips, the FX 8 core has a pretty good chance because it has 8 slower cores/threads vs 4 faster cores/threads, like in anything that uses 8 threads it has a good chance of being faster. aside from adobe premier, because that can make use of some newer instruction sets on i5s, but whatever, besides the point.

of course an i7 6700 is a fair amount faster than an FX 8 core even OC'd to 4.5ghz.

I7 isnt needed, your better off getting either i5-6600 and getting an SSD for boot and gameplay recording. the i5-6600 is a beastly CPU for what you want, get yourself a nice keyboard and mouse too, makes all the difference. any money you have left spend on your editing software and microphone + software for editing/ streaming. 

 

Good luck with youtube/streaming

Course just for the info mostly, if you just want 8 threads on the cheap, the 8300 should be able to OC to 4.5ghz pretty easily, though 4ghz is more managable, and it's like $200 for the CPU+motherboard + a hyper 212 EVO at 30 bucks I guess, it's what I currently run. Dunno if the Xeon 1231v3 is faster vs a 4.5ghz 8300, from a quick cinebench check they both score around 700, so the xeon is just going to be more power efficient.

Motherboard: ASRock 970A-G/3.1 ATX AM3+/AM3 Motherboard  ($79.99 @ SuperBiiz)


But you can afford the i7 6700, so if you're doing streaming that would be better, the Xeon 1231v3 is also pretty good, but the i7 can turbo to 4ghz + 5% IPC and the newer platform, it's probably worth the extra Hundred bucks there over the 1231v3.
