Hey all,

I'm a console gamer (XBOX 360) using an Elgato Game Capture HD and would like to start recording, editing, and rendering videos for YouTube as well as streaming to Twitch but I'm going to need a rig to do so and I need your help.
Any and all feedback is appreciated!

Approximate Purchase Date: This Month

Budget Range: $500-700

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Videos (Recording, Editing, Rendering, etc.), Streaming, Light Gaming (Minecraft, Garry's Mod, etc.), General Use, etc.

Location: Tampa, Florida, US

Overclocking: Maybe, not sure how.

Your Monitor Resolution: Currently using a HDTV for my PC and a gaming monitor for my XBOX

Additional Comments: PC not necessarily used for gaming, mainly to create content and for general use.

Thanks,
Marv
