Whats your max budget?

Is this a pure gaming machine or streaming/work. What monitor do you have/intend to buy resolution and refresh rate?

Should definately be looking for faster RAM,an m.2 ssd and better power supply at a minimum, perhaps even an AMD system based on use case.

Something along these lines. Decent budget case. 3800x great for editing and streaming. X570 motherboard lets you have
fastest m.2 and future support for newer chips. 1660super perfect for 1080. 32gb RAM for editing and a great budget cooler.

Ive put the fastest m.2 here as os and a 1 tb hdd - you can easily add more storage depending on your needs (larger storage for games/project drive etc) If you were thinking of upgrading monitor and gpu you could up the power supply to give more headroom. (Currently about 150watt)
