Hello.

I decided to buy a new pc basicly for gaming and streaming. Budget is 2000€. Can someone please make a good build on pcpartpicker that I could use? I am going to play on 1080p and sometimes maybe on 1440p. I also need a monitor that needs to be added in build for that price. 144hz please.

Thanks!

Here is a comparable Intel build. Both will give about the same fps at 1440p.

No one can say how long they will last. New tech keeps coming at a faster pace. But right now the 2600/8600 are the best CPUs for gaming when considering price and performance. You could spend an extra $100 on a 2700/8700 and you probably wont see any difference in games. The 1080 is the second fastest gaming GPU in the world. So there is not much more you can do to make it more future proof other than going for the 108ti.

R7 2700X and GTX1080Ti combo will be 35% more powerful than R6 2600X/i5-8600K and GTX1080 combo. Recommended for 1440p gaming. R7 2700X will give you smoother gameplay while streaming. All are high quality components. This will satisfy your gaming needs for longer period of time and will last you good time without need of upgrade.

I was unsure about the monitor, but it appears to be a decent model. https://www.bit-tech.net/reviews/tech/monitors/iiyama-g-master-gb2760qsu-b1-review/7/

If you wan't to save bit more on price I would recommend leaving out HDD for now and adding it in 2-3months when you can spend a bit on it. GTX1080Ti is recommended for 1440p gaming. I even lowered the CPU to R7 2700 from R7 2700X to save a bit on it. R7 2700 will overclock as good as R7 2700X there will be minimal performance loss if there is any. This is the minimum you should get to have good gaming experience.

The only thing I would suggest would be to swap the SSD for a Crucial or a Samsung but otherwise that looks good, I say go for it.
 


WD Blue SSD is as good as Crucial MX300 or Samsung 850EVO.
