Hi all,

This is my first gaming PC build ever. With this build, I'm planning to play games and stream at max settings. I'm not too sure if this build is good enough? I'm clueless when it comes to picking parts.. Sorry for being a noob. :( Any feed back would be appreciated. Should I be replacing anything? Or add anything else into this build? I have most of my parts already. Would I be able to stream and play games at max settings? Thank you all ~ My resolution would be trying to max settings out on 1080. Since I don't play much games on 4k.

Here's my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Z8jT23

This would be more than enough, you can add in a second 980Ti if you wanted to.

I personally would modify ellis's build to one 980ti due to the problems and diminishing returns of sli and a 500gb ssd I would also like to know how you are maxing out games 1080p60+ or 4k.

Yes, I'm willing to return anything if you guys change anything. As this is my first time picking out parts, so I don't really know what I'm doing. And my Resolution would probably be at 1080p

Probably are 1080p. Since I don't know games with 4k.
