streaming

how much of your time would be doing streaming? because there's some changes to be made to make this build more appropriate for streaming.

 

also, still not a fan of a large amount of fans or AIO's. (and RGB for that matter)

Also, you can get OEM windows way cheaper than that!

Why do you need 2 x 144Hz monitors ?

I don't do a ton of streaming mainly just for fun and the RGB is more so I can just change the theme of my computer if I want to.

Alright, I changed the processor to 7700K now, It is worth the extra $20 anyway. @Pauleh @Malibooroo

Thanks for the feedback

I guess it is not worth it IMO, because the boards may be more expensive than skylake boards

You would only need one of them to be 144Hz i.e The one you are gaming on. If the 2nd monitor is for the chat etc then a standard 60Hz will do for that.
