The 8700k $2800 Stream Build (Rainbow Xeno)

So this is the latest build I did for a pal who does twitch. I want it to be known I did not pick the parts (For example the PSU is overkill and the case is too big in my opinion) But since it was his build I just gave my two cents and let him pick it all out then I assembled it. Actually came out pretty nice looking.
