Hi, I'm trying to build my first PC. My budget is around $750- $1000. I will be using this PC for gaming, game captures, and video editing. I want of course as good as I can get for the money, but not much over. Money is tight for me at the moment and I can't afford to spend more than I already have saved up. I have an idea for graphics card and a processor, but I am open to suggestions. I was told by a friend who is more computer savvy than I that here have been some new releases in processors, I think it was.
For a graphics card, I was thinking of using the EVGA GeForce GTX 1060.
I was recommended the Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-core Processor, but I am open to other options.
I would like something I can overclock with for some future proofing, and a good quality, but affordable water cooling system(I've been told the're overrated, so I guess oberclocking and water cooling are optional features for this build), 16 GB of ram(I was recommended Ripjaws V series), I was told by my tech savvy friend to go with western digital for my hard drive and Samsung for an SSD, and an EVGA power supply(I was thinking 550-600 wats to be safe). I'm just a bit indecisive and need some advice to get maximal power and functionality for my budget and get my rear in gear getting this thing built. I appreciate any and all help and suggestions.
