Solid system for E-Sport titles?

[InsanityWolf]

Hi.I am upgrading from a 650€ 5year old laptop in less than 2 weeks and my budget is 1300€ including a monitor,but where I live prices are very high so it is hard to find anything reasonably priced.I mostly play E-Sport low demanding titles like LoL,Overwatch,Team Fortress 2,Payday 2 etc and want a system that can run those games at a consistent 144 fps,with the settings not necessarily maxed out but also not low.I will also do light editing and a lot of recording and maybe streaming.Do you think this system will serve me well for the next 5 years without any upgrades?

Please leave your opinion down bellow,wether it's a yes or no and feel free to make any improvements(like adding a 3gb gtx 1060 since I might not need all of that VRam).

16gb of ram no matter what for streaming and streaming depends on you internet speeds

I think that looks super good. A 1060 should get you by for awhile with games like that and the 1600 is just a good all around chip. You should be able to do streaming pretty easily off of that system.

All of your components look great, though you could save twenty bucks and buy a PRIME B350-PLUS motherboard (https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/fPDzK8).

I do not agree that this is true, especially with the light titles that will be running on this machine.

It can be done with 8gb but it wont be nice

 

5 minutes of looking found this http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/tech-support/220584-stream-quality-guide so we both are right and wrong

You can always add more ram too. If 8gb doesnt cut it then just buy another 8gb stick

your build is perfectly capable for your needs

Another thing.Do you think I should get 8gb of ram and an 250gb ssd(as it is in the build)or get 16b of ram and an ssd later.I will be upgrading anyways but I'm thinking that ram may be a bit fiddly while you just smack the ssd in there.

[jwacher]

I will never build or buy another machine without an ssd. I would highly recommend an ssd for the boot drive. If you cant spend another $60 then just do 8gb of ram now. I think you will see way more performance gain from an ssd vs 16gb of ram. Plus adding ram is much easier than cloning a drive down the road.

Allright,I will most likely the ram listed and the ssd and get the exact same whenever I get the money.
