You got tons of money to spend. Whatever you choose will run everything you throw at it. Might as well get the best parts you can

Terrible PSU. Case isn't anything special and is fairly over-priced. Worse CPU cooler. OP hasn't given us sufficient information, but there could be no need for a 980Ti. If OP is gaming at 1080p, or 1440p, a single 970 will be fine. Regardless, OP could spend the extra $300 for the 980Ti in the rig I suggested if he chooses, at least that way he won't have a poor rig

3K deserves 4K, just saying.
EDITED: chose the wrong cooler....

Can you give us more info? "Gaming and streaming" isn't a lot to go on. An i3 could do the job technically, depending on what games you're playing, and what else you're using the system for. If you're mostly gaming, you'd be better with a 6700k than a 5820k.

Yeah I agree we need more info.

What types of games are you interested in?

Do you want 4k? What does your current monitor support?

What are your preferences? AMD? Intel?
