Looks good to me. Not sure why you need 2-1TB drives, it would be cheaper to just get a single 2TB drive. And I am also not sure why you need 32 GB of RAM. I mean nothing technically wrong with anything on the list. If thats what you wanna build go for it. :) It should all work fine.

It's going to be a PC for rendering, streaming, and gaming and I just think that 16 ram won't be enough-.. I'm even sure that it won't be enough since a lot of things will be running in the background while streaming / rendering.
Thanks for your comment.

Fair enough. :) I figured you were gunna be doing some rendering or something, but I figured I should stick with the gaming angle. But yeah for Rendering and whatnot that build should work out great. BUT If you are sure the 32GB won't be enough you could always just do 2x16 sticks of ram now and get a couple more sticks later, that way you'd have 64 in the end.

I meant that 16 won't be enough, my fault.
Upgrading ram is a dark area which I would not like to get into since I don't want any errors to occur or miss match the ram sticks brand, it's either you go full in and buy the same brand and avoid having trouble later.
I heard that some people got the same RAM yet still had memory errors.

This PC isn't mine I'm building it for a friend, my buddy doesn't really care about the price but more about the product he'll be getting, he wants the PC to be mint without any issues and I just created this topic so he can be sure about buying those components since it's not cheap to replace components.
