Hey guys so I am a twitch streamer and have been streaming for a while now. i mostly play console games like BF4 and Star wars Battlefront. Lately I have been very interested in building a Gaming PC that i can play those games on as well as stream through OBS. Im pretty new to Building a Gaming PC so please don't hate. Now i know about GPUs and CPUs and all that. just not the actual building part. My local Best Buy has a bunch of these for sale (Link on bottom) and price will drop on Black Friday. Now 8GB is small and i plan on upgrading it to 16. So is this good? or would you recommend a good PC or even send me a link to a good one. my budget will be about $1500. i can add a bit more if a feel its worthy. Thanks Guys!!!

I would suggest purchasing the parts and building it yourself. You will save yourself a bit of money and have the freedom of choosing your own parts. These are some parts that i would suggest, http://pcpartpicker.com/p/T7HdLk

If you are scared about building it yourself, you could always follow a youtube guide, and as long as you follow everything it says your should be right. Or alternatively you could get someone else to build it for you.

Newegg has a tutorial that will show you exactly how to build your own PC. The only thing they don't tell you about is how to use a wrist strap, which is the most important part. So get a wrist strap, connect it to a good ground and build your own. It's the only way to go. Tom's Hardware has articles that contain the parts list for your budget - System Builder Marathon Q2 2015: $1600 Performance PC; http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/q2-2015-newegg-system-builder-marathon-1600-performance-pc,4177.html
