Please feel free to give any suggestions and feel free to give me a whole different pc parts that would be good for gaming/streaming that is under $1000.

Hello @Fabianpro

It looks good to do gaming and streaming but it does depend on the game you are planning to stream.  What games are you looking to stream?  


 We also do have guides for streaming on both the software side as well as equipment aspect for streaming.  

Fabianpro

I'd like to stream modern shooting games that are popular now like, "Fornite, call of duty modern warfare and some other ones" but I wont play at max settings. I play at 1080p settings.Everything 1080p no more. I'll use the graphics card for the encoding so that the gpu does less work 

TSPhillipT

I think you should be good to play at 1080P however you may want to stream at around 720p just to lower the stress for your system when encoding.  It is also a lot of testing once you get the parts and messing with the bitrate.  

Fabianpro

I am going to add additional fans to this pc to cool it down. But should i upgrade the cpu to a ryzen 7 2700x to stream at 1080p 60fps or what part should i change to be able to stream good. I am currently at a $1000 budget. Feel free to suggest anything but again I'm on a budget...

Ian

If you plan on encoding with your video card, then changing processor wouldn't make much difference for streaming. The processors are very comparable in benchmarks for both gaming and streaming. 

Fabianpro

What graphics card should i use then? but I don't want to go over my budget

Ian

The graphics card you have picked out is fine for your budget. If you want to get under $1000, I took your parts list, picked a different motherboard, power supply and cooler and kept everything else the same: https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=10ea330d-12a3-4945-800c-e16abc3e018b 

Fabianpro

So the pc part list that you gave me should be good for What I want which is streaming and gaming?

Fabianpro

I will also need fans and I'm thinking of soe rgb fans that are cheap so that i can keep my system cool.

TSPhillipT

Yes, the list Ian provided is a great selection of parts!  For Fans, I recommend these; https://www.microcenter.com/product/602670/cooler-master-masterfan-mf120r-argb-120mm-case-fan---triple-pack

Fabianpro

ok thank you very much! You guys are very helpful!!!!!!!!!!!

Fabianpro

I searched up the cpu cooler that you reccomended me and I can't find it anywhere. Is it good? I can't see youtube reviews about it.

TSPhillipT

The CPU cooler is similar to the Cooler Master Hyper 212.  

Fabianpro

Around how much fps do you think I'll be getting? I hope that I get at least over 100 when I stream on this.

Fabianpro

And if I need help building my pc, do I have to pay? If so how much.

PowerSpec_MikeW

We do charge for diagnostics and PC assembly. It would depend on what you needed us to do and what the issue was. Diagnostics are $39.99.

Fabianpro

Is my build correct? 
https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=cee2a4d4-7a9f-4fe6-9bb5-ec2dff176fa7
Are all my parts compatible with each Others? The pc Builder site tells me that the graphics card isn't compatible with all my other parts. What 2060 6gb gpu can i swap it out with to make it compatible?

Fabianpro

Does the 2060 fit with my pc spec?

PowerSpec_MikeW

@Fabianpro

Yes, the 2060 would work fine along the other components in this build. CPU certainly won't bottleneck it, your power supply is adequate.

Fabianpro

what other psu can i use for my build since the one i have on my list is sold out.

PowerSpec_MikeW

I would go with any unit over 650W. Personally I spend a decent amount on the PSU and buy premium units. EVGA Supernova, Corsair RMx, Seasonic Focus units.

Fabianpro

can you reccomend me one within the price range of $75

Enamelized

You could opt for the PowerSpec 750w PSU which would only be $10 more then what you were going to purchase

 Hope this might help

Fabianpro

I don't want to waste more than my budget. is there one i can use even if its sold out? I want a brand that I can trust like corsair or soemthing like that.

PowerSpec_MikeW

The only power supply I see in that price range is the Gigabyte 650W: https://www.microcenter.com/product/627315/gigabyte-p650b-650-watt-80-plus-bronze-atx-non-modular-power-supply

Not a lot of information out there about it. Looks like it's from a generic OEM. Spec wise it should hold up just fine though.

Fabianpro

ok thank you for your help!

Enamelized

I don't believe you're going to find a Corsair brand for that price unless there's a sale or something. I went to PSU and then sorted by price $50-75 and you can get an idea of what options you've got EVGA in there but only a 500w and that's not even a modular unit

PowerSpec_MikeW

@Enamelized

You might, but either way the best you're likely to see in that range is a B tier unit. Keep in mind even with the well known manufacturers, they're going to use different OEM's for different models. Different designs and there's a lot of information to dig into out there on this.  As an example I really like and usually buy the Supernova G3's from EVGA. They're Super Flower units. You'll see that brand in Europe as the Super Flower Leadex II. It's a really good unit.
