I need to build a gaming pc. I'm going to edit videos/ photos and record games while playing and have my antivirus runnin in the background. I've done a lot of research and have decided on these parts:

Do I need a sound card to use a headset?
I need advice, help me make my build better, my budget is $1650 and i need monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset with it too(all for gaming).

Thnx in advance!
