I am building my friend a pc for about 1600-1650 dollars and i have this put together

any thoughts on it, he plans on recording, editing, livestreaming, etc
He could play battelfield on ultra high while recording, which may i add is very hard to do but i have on thing to add take the 1TB hardrive out because, two terabytes is more than enough for all that he wants. Another is that you can get a better looking case for cheaper like this one NZXT M59 BLACK cheap and looks good(in my opinion) hope i helped.
the case was one of the things he wanted to pick and he was fond of the noise reduction so i dont think he will change but thanks for the feedback
