Hello all,
I'm looking to make a completely new build. I'm mostly into gaming and video editing/rendering (Premiere Pro). In the (not so distant) future I'd like to get into streaming as well. I want to be able to maximize FPS while streaming, optimize the use of Premiere Pro, while keeping the cost relatively around $1500. The total price would be without case and OS, but I'd like some opinions on cases as well.
Below I'll include what I'm leaning towards, I've been researching for quite a while and am very indecisive. I want to stay within the Intel family (if possible) unless you feel it's a mistake. Any changes to my choices, or even a complete overhaul is much appreciated.
I have a microcenter close to home, some of the parts are cheaper there than they are online.

CPU - i7 4820k 3.7GHz
GPU - GTX 760 2gb - will this be good enough to stream + game at high FPS? (on Ultra)
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 4x4gb 1600 - wasn't sure if I should grab the 1866 for 30$ more
SSD - Samsung 840 Evo 250G - for OS + programs.
HDD - At least 2 - 1TB Western Digital Blacks - planned on doing a raid setup
MOBO - I've been stuck between the Sabertooth x79, x79 deluxe, or Rampage 4.
Cooling - Corsair H100i
PSU - haven't made a decision on this, but I want there to be expandability, just in case, for upgrades
Like I said, I could be completely off the wall with some of these, and you may feel that they're unnecessary. If that's the case, please let me know where I can make changes or what I'm not understanding.
Even though a case is not included in the budget, I was leaning more for a Full Tower, I want there to be ease of access for liquid cooling. I (unfortunately) have to have things that are aesthetically pleasing, so even though they're pricey, I was thinking the Thermaltake Level 10 Gt Snow Edition or Thermaltake Level 10 GT LCS.
Please feel free to tell me I'm an idiot and should go with a different component.
Thanks you!
