    HELP : Gaming PC Specs/Build

    Looking for suggestions on gaming PC specs.
    I plan on using the PC for gaming and streaming.
    I also do not really want to build a PC myself so any suggestions on where to purchase a customizable PC build (Nzxt, Artesian, etc..)??
    I have a budget of about 4k but would obviously love if I could go lower.
    (I also have no real thoughts on Intel vs AMD).

    Thank you for any help/suggestions

    Just off the top of my head...

    I suggest going with AMD, as they are the superior processor company these days.

    AMD Ryzen 3700X or AMD Ryzen 3800X - might be dated, even though they released just a few years ago.

    I recommend picking a processor and then going from there

    You would be good with half that ram and use extra money on other parts. My only regret was not having larger NvME storage in mine, night and day difference between NvME and SSD. 1 tb SSD is decent but larger storage devices have dropped in price significantly and you can easily get multiple TBs for a decent price and save you from having to worry in the future about adding more.
    Is the 9 fans including the 3 on your AIO?
