Budget Esports/Streaming PC

[Crimma]

Hey guys, I am after some assistance on a new build. I am only really going to be playing CSGO and PUBG but occasionally other competitive multiplayer games. I will also be doing occasional streams (once or twice a week) but generally just be gaming.

 

I would like to get the best or required specs for those two games. I play ESEA in CSGO so I would like smooth game play and limited fps drop.

My current budget is $1500AUD but keep in mind I would like to upgrade parts in the future if they are currently minimal (Such as a i5 to a i7 or a Ryzen 5 to a 7 etc).

When I stream I use OBS.

I won't be overclocking unless needed too, such as a CPU under 3.5Ghz but anything above 3.5 should be fine. 

I do not need any additional peripherals.  

I don't really care about looks, just want a PC that can operate under load but not under pressure. 

 

Any suggestions on parts will be much appreciated 

 

Thank you

This list uses the I5 also I would buy the Elgato Game Capture HD60 Pro, stream and record in 1080p its a built in capture card. In my opinion Intel will always beat AMD's Ryzen In gaming.

I would change to a core I5, you could most likely find that same board for intel. Also I would change the graphics card.
