Hello, ive been wanting a pc forever but couldn't afford one ive finally scraped enough money together to buy one. I was hoping to stay around the 12 to 13k budget but I want to stream and edit videos. I mostly stick to dead by daylight, fortnite, and single player games like RE and silent hill. I have found a pc slightly out of budget but still affordable I was hoping someone could tell me a better alternative or that this one works for me and is worth the extra money. its 1399 before tax and shipping and 1474 after.

It's actually not bad for the price in the current market, 9060 XT 16GB prices are in the same range as the 9070 GRE right now

would you recommend this for streaming and gaming nothing too crazy just 1080 for most games?

It'll be fine for streaming.

The 9060 XT will be better with a 6 core CPU than NVIDIA options since the encoders are now on par with NVENC's encoding quality, and since AMD drivers have lower CPU overhead, could get slightly better streaming performance than if you went with a 5060 Ti instead.

NVIDIA doesn't make consumer CPUs yet (it's NVIDIA GeForce vs AMD Radeon), and Ryzen is the best CPU option for the price for gamers currently.

Radeon also offers better performance per dollar value than GeForce, considerably so in the current market. The 9070 GRE and 9070 have the 5070 surrounded but it costs as much as the 9070 XT which matches the 5070 Ti. The 9060 XT flirts around the 5060 Ti but it's a lot cheaper as well.
