Good build??

[MrTzXk]

Hey guys! I'm looking to build a PC for gaming in a YouTube channel so I will need to run all kinds of games on high settings whilst running recording software! My colleagues will be doing the majority of editing but I may also have to do some editing so I will need a PC that can not only run games well but also edit well! 

 

I previously had this build: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/bobbygee69/saved/ZZgTwP

 

but it due to prices I changed my build to this:

http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/6vbW3F

 

which do you guys think is better quality or alternatively how do you think I could improve the builds whilst keeping within my 1100-1300 pounds budget? 

 

Many thanks!

Build with the i7 is solid, the hyperthreading will help you.

The only thing I would consider changing is that headset.

The quality is questionable.

But if you already own it, then oh well.

I was told it was the best 'budget' headset around... What would you recommend instead?

I would suggest using a server grade Xeon and an X99 board for around the same price. (eBay has plenty of engineering samples of 10-14 core Xeons as new as Broadwell E)

You don't need many cores for gaming and you're better off with a 5820K and an X99 Board that costs just as much as 6700K with Z170

£1300 can get you a 6800k (most likely 6700k though) and 1070 you know @MrTzXk

Well, he can save some money around $50 and get a 5820K... You don't lose much...

It's GBP. The difference is only £30 but I guess that could make a difference.

Broadwell-E is still not good at overclocking, Haswell-E on the other hand, is extremely good with many CPUs (5820Ks and 5930Ks) having the ability to reach 4.7GHz...
