I need tips for a good pc hardware to run skyrim

I'm thinking of getting skyrim from steam, as a long time fan of the game for xbox 360, i feel like i need more out of this game but i cant achieve it on my current laptop so i need to buy a new desk pc.


I'm actually thinking of building my own from parts, I wont do the actual building, i'll go to a pc store, say what i need but that's the problem, i dont know yet what i need exactly, what is the most important components i should be looking for to run skyrim in the pc version?


i also wanna run some basic mods, i am not looking forward to heavily mod the game, but mostly add one graphical mod, and the rest will mostly be new content, new quests, interesting npc's, levelling overhaul etc that's what im looking forward to the most.


I also should add that i am looking forward to one day start streaming skyrim on twitch so i am counting on a good enough pc that allows me to not only play the game but also stream using obs or xsplit.

a few questions good sir, to help better advise you on what parts would be right for you




1) what is your budget?


2) is skyrim the only game you will be playing on it? or would you like to be able to play other (more recent) games on it as well?
