Budget: $1150 with Operating System.

Gonna use this to Stream on Twitch, Record for Youtube, and Render Videos For Youtube.

Gonna be playing Dayz, Minecraft, Rust, Arma III, Call Of Duty, BF4, Gary's mod, Left 4 Dead 2, and a few other steam games.

Needs to be able to play these games and stream/record at same time without lagging.

Mostly gonna be recording and streaming while playing the games will render stuff while im sleeping.

You should go with the intel system. I suggest a Core i5 so you can put more money into the graphics card.
