So I made a custom PC, i don't have any parts yet, but every little bit helps, I need it cheap and powerful, here it is http://pcpartpicker.com/p/z4DjRB I'm only using this for Skyrim, Roller coaster tycoon 1, I want ultra graphics plus 70 mods on Skyrim, so there's that, plus recording and streaming.
 
Get an i5 4690K instead of an i7 3770 and replace the B75 board with a Z97 one from MSI, Gigabyte or ASUS.

Go for 2x4GB RipJaws-X 1866MHz RAM - 8GB will be fine.

I'd get rid of the Hitachi HDD and go for Seagate instead. 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB cache Barracudas are great.

You can probably get a cheaper case. Look at the Corsair 300R or Fractal Design Define R4 or NZXT Phantom.

That will save you a lot of money and will still perform very well.

With the money you save you could throw an SSD in there - Samsung 840 EVO 250GB is cheap and fast!

You could even put a GTX 780 in there if you felt like it.

But this system is massively overkill for RCT1. Are you sure that game even works on Windows 7 or 8?

Yeah I know Skyrim does - I'm talking about Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 which you said you wanted to run!

You could run RCT1 in a VM of Windows 2000 or XP and it would run perfectly.
 
System Requirements
Minimum:
OS: Windows XP or Windows Vista
Processor: 1.8 GHz Processor
Memory: 512 MB RAM
Graphics: 3D graphics card compatible with DirectX 7
DirectX: Version 7.0
Hard Drive: 2 GB available space

This is for RCT 1, This is from steam.
 
Should work then. Just wanted to check since that game out in the previous millennium. :P
