Im looking for a PC that will have no problem streaming console games. It will be used for streaming, internet and video editing, no gaming, but able to upgrade in the future for gaming.

Want to purchase within a week.
I don't need a monitor, mouse or keyboard

This will work and will also be a pretty good gaming PC down the road, if you want a better CPU throw in the i5-4670K and a GPU to turn it full gamer :D Also, after rebates it will be 500 ish +/- rebates will pay for the case.

Thanks for the build, I really appreciate it. So with the i5 version if, down the road, I wanted to upgrade it for gaming all I would have to do is buy a graphics card?
