Morning all

New to this build your own PC malarkey so would really appreciate an expert running their eyes over this build please.
  • - main use is for video editing (Premiere Pro and After Effects) and Photoshop, but you cant take the gamer out of the boy so this also saves me buying a PS5
  • - budget is around £2.5k but flexible
  • - monitor choice has mainly been dictated by current stock situation so open to suggestions
  • - I've no doubt the GPU, CPU and RAM are more than substantial enough but unsure if other aspects of the build need amending as I've simply amended the suggested Studio Pro configuration from PCS

If you're going for the 5900X, you'll need to up your motherboard and cooling for sure. A, RMx PSU would also be better for temps and future upgradability...
