you don't need more then this for a streaming computer.
if you were going to game on the computer , then just change the graphics card.

Wow I appreciate that! That's a really nice build!! I like the combo with the CPU and Win 7!

Would like a little bit of a better gpu, going to be watching movies in 1080p on a 74" tv :3 Would the gpu do the trick or should I upgrade it to a different one?

i watch 1080p videos off a 13$ video card I bought off amazon
would only upgrade gpu if you plan on doing anything more than streaming videos


e/

A cheaper alternative that already has a hard drive and a wireless card in it. It has half the cores, but it's plenty.

It's better to pick the CPU up from Newegg for a dollar more.

Just got word that the person I am building this for will also be doing a flight simulator. So do I need a better GPU?
