I'm looking to build a gaming/twitch streaming pc
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/kqv6ZL
here is my build, yet its pretty pricey (for my budget), and I was wondering if I could downgrade a few things and still get 60fps on most games medium-high settings. (When streaming too) |

| This build is a little more pricey but it could run almost any game at ULTRA 60 FPS+ |

CPU is great. RAM is awful. Video card is nothing special PSU looks good.
Suggestions: get 2 8GB sticks of ram and run them in dual channel for 16GB (8GBx2) |

I'll probably get more RAM later. If thats possible?
This is my first time building a pc.
What's dual channel? |

| No, he's just a spoiled rich kid who thinks the most expensive parts are the best and won't settle for less. i5 4690K is great for gaming. The i7's are overkill for gaming, ideally you get one of those for rendering video/animations/streaming or handling multiple tasks at once. |

| @shadow: It's Equal to 960. Which Sucks. To Compare, 980 was Out last year. Outdated To say the least. Try playing GTA 5 Max 1080p Let alone 4k. You cant. |

| No one said anything about 4k and to assume that everyone uses 4k is idiotic |

actually, i upgraded it a bit
68$ pricier, but a whole lot better
-added a CPU cooler (you got a 4690K. why would you not overclock it?)
-changed the MoBo to a Z97 Anniversary from an H97 so you can overclock (SINCE YOU'RE BUYING AN OVERCLOCKING PROCESSOR)
-cheapened down the case and PSU to the thing that I have (they work, trust me)
-switched the GPU to an EVGA 960 SuperSC (because Nvidia likes to shoot AMD in the knee graphics-wise)
-switched 8 with 7 (personal preference, do whatever with that)
here's the build:

sorry for making it pricier; i had to fix a few things |

Ram doesn't really make a difference. If you're just streaming, I'd spend more on the GPU and check your upload speed. |

You might want to spring for the 4790K if you're streaming.
