Hi, i started capturing gameplay, a while back for my xbox 360 and have realiused my laptop is holding me back in potential, whilst also not being time effective.
So ive decided to go all out,

I need a Pc cappable of all this, so the basics are hard drive configuration, Graphics card and what Cpu. obviously cooling

I have been looking at this http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/view/vortex-700-overclocked/
Then possibly raid0 setting up 2Tb
but then again most people have said SDD then second HDD
Ive also been told to go for the basic Samsung ram? by building it from scratch
with the The PCS Maelstrom T900 Case for efficent cooling



I will be streaming black-ops, when the game comes out, so i need it to have plenty of cores as this is also a compsumtive? procces

That all seems like a sensible plan :) build up a config and we'll see if there's anything to improve on :)

Just an alternative to your spec - with a better graphics card and core i5. Also changed the HDD's to 64MB Cache ones.

Removed Norton, as the software causes more issues than it resolves. Recommend MSE or Avast instead. (Both are free as well)

EDIT: noticed I forgot to change the case, so the case you prefer ads £30 on top of this.
