New Build Help

[ItzGonzoHD]

Currently im planning to build another pc.

 

I've already made a pc partpicker list for a build. but im not sure if its overkill in places or missing.

my budget is 1.5k, but i prefer it to be cheaper. and as for color scheme i want a black/green/white build if possible.

but case has to be black overall

 

PC will be mostly to play AAA titles and streaming/recording.

Thank you in advance for any help given

Get a Ryzen 1700 instead. For streaming, it's miles better than the 7700K. You also won't need the 212 Evo. You could either use the stock cooler, or upgrade to a Dark Rock 2.

Beware that Ryzen likes higher speed memory, so try to get 3000 MHz or faster. 

Get a HDD for mass storage. 

The Phanteks P400S has RGB LEDs, I think.

Get a cheaper PSU. An EVGA G2 650W or similar

It's the first good CPU AMD has made in like a decade.  And it's really really good, especially for streaming.  That build is also RGB capable btw.

you can cut the 1080ti down to a 1070/80 and get a 144hz/1440p monitor if you want, or just save the money. there's black and white P400 if you want those colors instead.

He's streaming, he shouldn't be getting an i7.
