So i've had a amazing pc but it's half dying and i want a completely new one, so i want one that is able to run most game and stream.

I've seen a lot of AMD's here on the forum but i rather have a Intel but change my mind if AMD is better i am just used to Intel,

never used a AMD. But if it's better for the build i want then go ahead. I live in the Netherlands so i rather buy parts from Europe like

German sites and stuff like that. Don't wanna be a lot of tax for no reason, my budget is 1500 EURO but i don't mind going a little over it.

I hope someone can make a nice build for this guy that has no knowledge of builds!

I already got all my gear and i got a 75hz monitor rn but planning on buying a new AOC monitor soon enough, mostly League of Legends, Nier Automata, CS:GO.

So like, Plain, Simple and Heavy games. I got a steam full of games but i can't run most of em anymore.

Besides streaming and gaming just photoshopping and video editting. So a good graphics card would be great!

 This is probably about what j would get if you want to do an Intel gaming and streaming pc for that budget. It's a bit over the budget but you could take out parts that you already have and don't need to replace like storage, ram, or case.

Would it be good enough to edit videos in Sony Vegas Pro?

This will pretty much kill anything you can throw at it. You can change the case out if you want something different. the GTX 1080 Ti and RTX 2080 are very expensive in germany so that's why there is only a 1080.

As you can see Intel costs a bit more. There's a reason why, but you might have to sacrifice in other areas. You can exchange a few of those parts out for cheaper ones if you like

Intel cpu prices in europe are crazy. Besides, the 8 multi-threaded cores of a 2700X give it better streaming performance than a similarly priced Intel cpu. It also has excellent gaming performance.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Absolutely. The 8700k is actually quite good at content creation it is just quite a bit more expensive than alternatives. The r7 2700x is generally better in content creation workloads but doesn't have as good of gaming performance. The 8700k is about 100 euros more expensive and requires an expensive cooler to make use of it by overclocking otherwise it isn't really worth getting. Once overclokced though it is the best gaming cpu on the market today while still being good at content creation tasks. Now the question is do you want to pay about 200 more euros to go for the 8700k plus a nice cooler or simply get a 2700x and use the stock cooler and have great performance out of the box. I have the 2700x and personally love the cpu but if you want to go Intel because it's the best for gaming then the 8700k is a good choice.
