Well first off how much are you going to spend? Country (prices)? Recording game play I assume? 

Like $1500, Yeah Recording GamePlay

Do you care about rendering times. And will you use nvidia shadow play. This will effect your cpu from an i5 to i7

Just get a i7 6700K with a Z170 motherboard, some RAM, good GPU (i.e. GTX 1070 or GTX 1080), decent case, power supply, ssd, hdd (for game storage or whatever), Windows 10, ect. I really can't recommend a specific build so in the end it's your choice. A i7 IMO is a good choice since i7's are great for gaming and doing, well whatever you want lol. 

For 1500 dollars he has more chance of winning the lottery. The motherboard ram and cpu is gonna be more than half. Still no graphics or hard rives or fans or case or cooler or anything

If we say nvidia then what resolution is the monitor and the games you want to record at? This will effect the gpu. Then got for an i7 or i5 based on what I said in my last post. Please get back.

Well I hold my hands up and appolagise for being misleading and optimistic in my prediction. 

In my defence I'm in the uk and things are typically more expensive so the idea of getting a PC for £1100 is amazing.

Getting a PC for under 500 is easy.
