Looking for a gaming computer build. I prefer intel processors. I need everything. Like a monitor, OS, keyboard,speakers, etc. My budget is 800 dollars preferably but i can spend 1000 too if its worth the money, I plan to mainly play league of legends and stream. I would also like to be able to play some games like minecraft, unturned, dayz. THE main thing is to be able to play league of legends at above 60 FPS while straeming on twitch.
Lookign for a computer build.

Since you want to do streaming, I would probably want to go with this, at the upper end of your budget. There isn't a game out there that this will not play well.

This one is not as fast, but still a very capable machine, and closer to your budget. LoL's system requirements are so low, that this would easily do what you are looking to do there.

It really depends on what you are willing to spend, and what the other games you are interested in need hardware wise. I know Minecraft isn't a demanding game. I do not know of your other interests gaming wise.

I missed the monitor, keyboard and such. I did have OS. Your build includes MIR's, so it is a bit misleading. This is also a bit over budget.

Missed the OS in your build, my bad. Your builds include a bunch of MIRs too though.

I have MIR's turned off when I do my builds. It will be on for you if you have it marked as being on, on your PC. Look at the price difference when you click on my builds, it should drop, just as yours went up when I clicked on yours. 
This is the closest I could get to low end of budget. It isn't anywhere near as good as the systems above though.

So this will be able play league of legends on high and stream? Would playing games like dayz be a problem at like medium to low quality? Also this will be my first time building my own PC. Is there anything that noobies should know before purchasing and building.

Also would this be able to do the same thing and is it worth the investment to build my own computer instead?

You won't have any issues with that for LoL. The system requirements for dayz seem to be fairly modest as well. Either system you pick will play just fine. This benchmark below used a system slower than my Intel builds.

Was also looking into this. They all seem to have the same processor speeds. So would they all run the same? I'm considering this since i need to be usinf WIFI for internet since i cant hardwire from ym room

You are better off building your own. Those systems use crappy integrated graphics, that are not made for gaming. Just add this to the system you build for WiFi.
