Overpriced MoBo.
Don't need i7 for gaming.
Don't need 860w PSU for that build.

Get a 4690k, $110-130 Z97 Board, and 550w PSU and you will get the same performance but save about $200.

agreed.
Change ram to 8gb.
Then do dexa's recommend for cpu and mobo, but keep the psu
buy a 2nd gtx 970 for sli.
profit.

No reason to overspend on cpu/ram/mobo, but not overspend on graphics, if we are talking about gaming :)

i5 can stream just fine. 16 GB isnt necessary to stream either, but can help in some situations if youre like shaft and keep 30 tabs of chrome open, 3 games, OBS, and your digital desktop girlfriend open all at the same time.

Slightly beneficial but not worth the extra $100.
