First of all, I don't know what the correct topic this should be in, if this is the wrong place, can a mod move it there.

 

basically I've build a PC on pcpartpicker

 

they say it's all compatible with each other(the pieces)

 

could anyone one confirm this?

You're ovyrpaying by a good 1000 pounds, but yes they're compatible.

 

That said the Supernova NEX is anything but great. Switch it for this http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/rt8H99/evga-power-supply-210gq0750

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

I would be using it for games and streaming and drawing(with a tablet)

Honestly, an i5 6500 would probably be plenty for that use case. Games just don't need a high end CPU and streaming won't add too much, unless you want to run one of those super fancy streams with the messages that pop up when a fan makes a donation with flashing lights and whatnot, normal Twitch or YouTube streaming and triple A gaming should do well with a 6500.

 

If that's not good enough for you, a 6600K would be the next step up, (don't buy a 6600 without the K) but I think that would be overkill for your situation!

 

An i7 6800K is super mega overkill! Get the 6500, or the 6600K, and spend that other money on something else, maybe on some cool games, or on something for mama this Christmas! :P

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special. -_-

also I'm aiming kinda high on this build, I'm gonna spoil myself =]

Nothing wrong with that, at all. But, why spoil yourself on things that you won't notice? I really, really doubt that you will even see a benefit from that CPU! O.o

streaming you could. bf1 can use a 6700k 100% so I see it as fine. 

Good luck, Have fun, Build PC, and have a Wii and PS2 as your only consoles.

You plan to play a lot of BF1? :D That's an exception to the rule! Still, it's your money! Whatever your choice, I hope you enjoy it.

I do play a lot of bf1, games are getting more and more cpu heavy. Cities skyline, bf1 and others destroy cpus

I say just get a 6700k and OC the hell out of it.... 6800k kinda gives you more of a future proofed build, assuming games will take advantage of more cores in the future. But IMO you went way overboard with 64gb of ram... or at least at that speed and price. Why not get a badass gpu instead? I mean the 1070 is a great card, but I feel like a 1080 would be more appropriate considering how your other components are so high end... Also if you are going to go air cooling, go Noctua. They are the best in my opinion, but the EVO is good too.
