This build I put together could definitely smash most any game you put at it in 1080 or 1440. Shouldn't have any problems streaming/recording & you definitely have the capacity to play VR games at decent fps.
Build:
Intel - Core i5-9600K $259
Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO $30
MSI - Z390-A PRO ATX LGA1151 $129
Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 $74
Samsung - 860 Evo 500 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive $75
Gigabyte - GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB WINDFORCE $475
Corsair - 200R ATX Mid Tower $60
EVGA - SuperNOVA G3 750 W 80+ Gold $95
overall shouldn't run you much over the 1200-1300 range & as I stated would be a very high performing pc. You can adjust certain components to achieve a cheaper/more expensive build as you prefer, I just chose the parts I have confidence in. Case is purely up to you!
FYI: I am not opposed to Ryzen by any means, you may be able to choose Ryzen over intel and save a little money, but with all the PCs I've built, I have never had any poor results with i5 processors. I actually still have a PC I own with an i5 8600k overclocked to 4.4ghz and it is a monster, runs cool asf & has great performance. IMO Intel is the move, but as I stated I am a little biased. I've got friends with 2700x builds and they have no problems, but I personally don't have experience with ryzen.
If you have any questions or concerns feel free to reply to this post and I'll offer what expertise I have, PC building is quite opinionated so everyone can have different opinions about such.
