Hey guys, I'm looking to build a new box for my Gaming, but preferably want to have capability for streaming (1080x30fps minimum) and rendering in a reasonable time frame. Can you get a better system than what I found for $800?

The wraith cooler can't handle the 95W CPU. 1600X doesn't come with a cooler.

I am aware that the X variants of the new Zen cpus don't have stock coolers, thus I am asking about it for comparison to an aftermarket cooler. So 1600 and wraith cooler vs 1600x and aftermarket?

Aftermarket definitely better.
The Cryorig M9a thermal performance is on par with the 212 Evo; thus I put it in the list.

Ok god that psu I need to shut my eyes I can't bear the sight of it...

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
