August 22, 20178 yr So I want to build a new PC in December but I really don't know what parts to pick, I've been looking at the Ryzen 1700X and the Intel i7-7800X, my budget is $2000 and I will be streaming when I get this PC. It would be nice if I can get some help with this? I'm honestly a noob when it comes to picking PC Parts.
August 22, 20178 yr Newegg star ratings and reviews are quite useful.

August 22, 20178 yr Opinions will vary greatly with brand preference or bias. I would suggest doing some web research, then coming back listing a build you have chosen. We then can suggest weak points or improvements. Also, what sim do you plan to run? what resolution/screen will you use? Any specific needs?

I plan to run P3D and Flight Sim World since I bought it and can't run it with my current pc, I will be using 1440p and I will be streaming. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BQnWhq Also I've been hearing about Coffee Lake being 11% faster the Kaby Lake in terms of Single-Threaded Performance and Multi-Threaded performance up to 51% faster, excited to see actual benchmarks to see if this is true.
August 23, 20178 yr After doing extensive research I was about to build 7700k, but realized the 8th generation will be in the market in 2 months, so I postponed my plans. I know if you are going to wait for the new thing in CPU/GPU you will not be going to buy anything for ever, LOL From the endless number of articles and clips I have seen, the conclusion is: If you are going to sim, go for Intel If you are going to sim, edit, and stream, then go for AMD
August 23, 20178 yr Looks like a decent build. The latest AMD thing is questionable indeed. I'm not sure anyone has run and compared FSX or P3D performance vs Intel. OP would be a frontier on that one. You could probably save some money with a 1070. At that res, I think only Xplane and AeroFly, push graphics cards hard enough to justify the best. My GTX970 still pushes FSX at 4k with ease. I'd also opt for a 4T HDD, 2T won't go far imo.
