Hey guys,
I'm looking to build my first gaming/editing PC. I would like an i7 so that I can edit videos and use animation programs like Maya.I will also be gaming and maybe stream occasionally. I won't need a monitor, keyboard, mouse or OS. Looking to buy from NCIX Canada. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: I would like to spend under/around $1800 after taxes (7%) and the $50 build fee from NCIX so it's pretty flexible.
