You completely missed the fact that I plan on doing multiple things on this system. I will be playing games while recording and streaming, so memory is important. The upgrade in the chip isn't much money wise, so I will make that change, but the mother board you suggest looks like a pile of crap.

i can do all of that with 8gb memory, i have a 760 and a fx-6300. So you don't need 16. Uses less than 80% so dont spend the money if you dont have to

I didn't at all, the i5 is powerful to do all the things you wanted to do, and seeing as memory is the easiest thing to upgrade in a system if you found in the future you needed more you'd just buy a set and add it in later. Its the smarter purchase than buying more than you need now.

You said also you may want to add in an additional graphics card in the future, so that motherboard stays within budget constraints and still offers 2x PCIe slots at x16 speed. If you'd rather have a certain colour/looks combo let me know and i'll try to accomodate.

No the mother board doesn't literally look like crap, it's reviews look like crap.
