Posted March 24, 2017 This is my build concept for a solid gaming and streaming PC for streaming PC and Console games like Skyrim/fallout 4/ H1Z1 and VR games too. Location is US and budget is around 1600$ including peripherals, the lower cost the better obviously. Probably wont overclock but would like to have the potential for it down the line if I choose. I toyed with a more beefy build awhile ago and decided to tier things down to something much more practical. The monitor I plan to get is not found on PC part picker but is on amazon here at 199$. Will likely get 2 monitors so I can stop using my tv as a second screen and start using it as a tv but I won't be getting that right away so I'm not factoring that into the budget. The theme of this build is black and white, that's why I wanted to chose a case that is minimalistic. I do not want water cooling. What improvements can be made?

Posted March 24, 2017 I5s are very quickly becoming irrelevant. You want either a 7700K or preferably Ryzen 1700 A 1600 would do the trick as well for less than that i5 Want to custom loop?

A lot of these choices come from my own taste, like the (good) 750W PSU so you can do SLI without having to get a new one. 27" 1440p monitor for high-resolution games and a case I quite like, from Cooler Master. That mouse is great for fingertippers, feel free to substitute a Logitech G402 or G502 if you palm grip. We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now.

The X5 is the same frame but a higher-end sensor that has a couple more features. It's got nice grippy surface around the thumb and pinky area and a couple buttons for macros and shit. Only thing I dislike is that you can only use half of the 4 side buttons as "mouse x" type buttons, the other 2 are disabled by default but you can still bind them to stuff if you like.
