Hello there an other friend wants to live stream with a budget. He doesn't want to bother about over clocking.

His Needs:
- A good updated cpu (Xeon/i7) with hyper threading
- 16 gb ram
- Monitor (Bestbuy.ca and amazon got some good ones)
- OS (Windows 7)
- Mouse, keyboard

Forgot I have 2 Amd 7950 so the motherboard has to support CrossFire.

The CPU is better as it has a higher clock speed and it's on the DMI2 bus as opposed to the E3-1230, which has a DMI bus.
You don't need 16 GB of RAM for gaming
Got you a better SSD
The case is better as it comes with 3 fans and it supports more
The PSU you chose is overkill

H97 actually supports CFX but not SLI as they cannot divide the CPU's 16 PCIe lanes accordingly into x8 and x8 for SLI but they can divide it for VFX.
