So for about the past week I've been asking people to set up some specs for a gaming rig, but they've all fallen short of what I need. So I'm gonna ask a bit more specifically than what I usually do:

• Made for gaming while streaming, so it needs to be able to multi task a bit
• Come to a total cost of under $1000 (You have no need to include a keyboard/mouse &OS, as I can supply for those)
• At least 8GB of RAM and preferably a 3GB video card
• There's no need for SSD
• This one isn't 100% necessary but it would be nice if the thing wasn't a total pain to set up, it really doesn't matter if it's a lil' bit of one though

Thank you SO much if you're kind enough to create the SPECs list for me!
That's pretty much it guys, thanks for even looking at this.
