First Time Building a gaming Pc

Tekarukite_7

I have been researching on yt and google for the best parts for streaming and gaming parts. need advice on what I should add or take a way. I do have a price limit for each part which is under $200. Also i don't know which storage I need. Also not sure if these parts are compatible for the motherboard.

Greetings @Tekarukite_7

Your build is solid all around. If you're looking to cut costs, while i love the EVGA Supernova series, 750W is way overkill for what you're building here. You could by with a 550W very easily. I'd drop down to something in that range. Put the difference into a Ryzen 5 3600. you have a GPU, you don't need a CPU with an APU. You may be able to upgrade the GPU as well and stay under budget.

how does it look now? would i need an optical drive and video capture? i'm also wondering if i should do fans or cooling or both.

Better. I'd upgrade to the 3600 for a pretty small amount. Swap out the 2.5" SATA drive for an NVME drive. For fans, depends on the case you select. It will include at least a few.

Tekarukite_7

its a Phantek 600s. 3600 is that for the cpu? Nvme? i dont see that as an option.

PowerSpec_MikeW

Includes a pair of 140's in the front and a 120mm exhaust. You should be fine.

Tekarukite_7

so no fans? and just add cooling?

PowerSpec_MikeW

You should have 3 with that case. For cooling, you'll have the AMD stock cooler included, and this is sufficient if you're not overclocking. It's your choice to upgrade the cooling solution.

I'm still deciding if i want to Overclock it. do I need an optical drive and video capture for streaming and gaming?

PowerSpec_MikeW

That depends on  you. I consider optical drives obsolete, but if you have DVD's then yes. For streaming generally capture cards are used for two system streaming setup. If you're streaming from this PC, then no. I wouldn't bother with a capture card. Put that money into a better GPU for enhancement performance.

Tekarukite_7

I'm planning in livestreaming from this PC. what GPU do you think is better than my current one I have on my list?

I would get the best that you can for your budget. I'd try to get to a 1660 Super or a RTX 2060.
