Really overwhelmed first PC build in 7-10 years. Gaming/Video recording and editing $1500 Budget. Please any help would really be appreciated. So thank you

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

  • I haven,t built a pc in 7-10 years. So i'm way out of the loop on what is good or not. I would like to be able to play all moddern games ( I.E. Destiny 2, Overwatch, Battlefield V, and other like that). Also video recording and editing. Podcasting. I watch alot of streaming (Netflix, Hulu, Youtube etcetera).

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

    1. A little over is fine if it is for the sake of a beter part.

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

  • In the next couple weeks.

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

  • everything except the monitor, keyboard and mouse.

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

  • Mass, USA.

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

  • The monitor is from LG. And the mouse and keyboard are razer.

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

  • Not really sure. As I said before havent built a pc in awhile and it was never a gaming pc.

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

  • My guess is a 1tb-2tb would be fine.

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

  • I do not want all the lights every gameing pc has if possible. 3 USB in front would be great.

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

  • Yes windows 10.

Extra info or particulars:

  • I'm not really up to date on all this stuff anymore and am getting really overwhelmed with it all so any help is really appreciate it.
