Hey guys, was looking for some thoughts on a new pc. I will be able to buy it in about ~3 weeks.

I already have 2 monitors, mic, webcam, kb, mouse and SSD + HDD. So I just need the PC, minus the SSD.

I do currently have a 1060, but I was thinking of just selling it to a friend and getting a 1070.

My budget is around 1200$. I want my pc to be a beast, and I would like the option to livestream with good fps. I am an fps whore, I have a 144hz monitor so I want to be 144 fps stable at least.

I basically just play Overwatch currently, but I will be playing other games in the future.

I do need windows 10 also in the budget.

The Ryzen lineup should be out by that time.
Would the money from the 1060 sale be in the budget or is it already calculated in the 1200?

I didn't calculate it because I would probably sell it for a lot cheaper to help a buddy out. I guess I could safely say 1300$ could be the budget. (I might just give it to my little brother)

Okay 1300$ it is.
How a PC would be in that price range today. But a 8c/16t ryzen would probably fit your budget in 2-3 weeks

OC the cpu to 4.8~ GHZ

You can get windows 10 keys on twed for 10$

thank you for the help, I will see what's up with ryzen before my purchase

No problem. Bump this thread a few days before you are ready to purchase.

You could get a Ryzen 1700

that's better than the 7700k? Not much cheaper

Cheaper +equal performance

What else are you looking for

Well higher multiple cores performance. Lower single core. Pros and cons. But talking about streaming the ryzen would be a neat option.
