Hi
Looking to put a pc together for my son.His old PCS pc can not live stream.
At the time of buying before he knew what live streaming was I went cheap on the processor so I could spend more on the graphics card.
For his next PC
Budget - £1000 - £1500 (looking to stay as close to £1000 as possible)
Screen resolution - 1270 -1080 hd
Main game fortnight
I was waiting for the new rtx cards but after some research it seems if my son is not using a 4k monitor it may not be necessary?
At the moment not sure to go for
gtx 1060 6gb
gtx 1070 8gb
Vega 56
Not sure if I would see benefit from anything above the 1060 6 GB?
I am also torn between the ryzan 5 2600x
Or a ryzen 7 2600x
The 5 is cheaper but will it be powerful enough to live stream or is it worth going for the 7?
Also is it worth getting a 3rd party cooler or is the AMD one good enough?
Looking at RAM is it worth getting The 3000 does it make a difference?
I would also appreciate some advice on cases. Not worried about the look just the right cooling.
Motherboards no idea what's right I can not get my head around them so would appreciate advice.
My son tells me his stream needs to be at least 720 60fps
Is build below good enough or is some upgrading required.
I have done loads of research and have an idea of what is needed but always run my pcs builds through the forums for the final check.
As mentioned above I would rather stay close to the £1000 mark but only if it will work.
If the build needs an extra £500 then so be it but I don't want to spend money on parts that can't be utilised.
