New Pc!

Go to solution Solved by brob,

If you are not interested in overclocking, this build will do a very good job. The cpu cooler is optional. Nice to have and will let the system run quieter, but not entirely necessary.

Something like in a range of 1000 is possible (just reused a build I had before). 

 

Generally a nice skylake 6500 with a good 1060 6gb is good for 1080p gaming

I would change that CPU into an i7-6700 or 6700K, that will allow easy streaming

If you go with a 6700 non-K, get something like a hyper 212 Evo for cooling. If you go with a 6700K< this allows overclocking but requires a slightly more expensive motherboard ($20 at the most) and maybe a Noctua NH-D15 (much better air cooler)

I would probably go for a slight oc, something like 4.5 

212 evo would be pushing it. definitely look for something like an NH-D15 or an H100i v2

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
