Hi

I'm looking to get a new motherboard, CPU,CPU cooler/closed loop water cooler, and memory for the purposes of streaming/gaming. My main games I play are Dayz,and BF3 games as well as playing other games and potentially streaming them in the future. I have an 650 dollar budget, but I really want to have the best bang for my buck. I'm wanting to overclock it too.
I already have a 128GB Samsung 840 Pro SSD, N570GTX Twin Frozr II/OC, NZXT phantom full case, and a 850wt power supply.

One of my friend told me about the FX 8350 and said its really good for streaming and gaming but i don't know much about AMDs CPUs.
PS. should i get 16gb of ram or is 8gb good for streaming
 


Sure is. Depending what you plan to do, 8 Gb should be enough. The processor is the latest offering from Intel and it is a beast. I went with the i7 4770k and was running a 2600k and there was a heck of an uptick in performance. Uptick, more like a huge kick.
