Simple Questions - March 04, 2019

Hello!

I’m building a PC for the first time ever and, lets be honest, i’m a straight noob. I was wondering if the build i’ve come up with will be good for what I listed below:

My budget is _$ 1250.00_.

Usage:

- Work

- Gaming + streaming

For work, I may have Chromium with up to 100 tabs going + Slack + Ventrilo.

For gaming, I mostly play Fortnite (and some other games occasionally), on the PS4. I have no experience gaming and streaming on a PC.
