I'm planning on getting a new computer soon and I was wondering if I could get some advice about what parts to get. I plan on using the PC for gaming, streaming, and making videos. My budget is under $1300. I don't need a mouse, headset, keyboard, or monitor. I plan on running Windows 7.

Here's a start, I'd recommend waiting for an aftermarket version of the r9 290 though

This will be around $1280, If youre overclocking it just get the normal 4670 it is cheaper than 4670k
