Hi,

Appreciate any feedback on this config:

Use will be Games plus video editing plus general explore the technology
Main monitor is a GIGABYTE M32U 31.5" 4K UHD Gaming Monitor
Price is not really an issue
Graphics card is probably overkill so appreciate any specific points in this direction...

Thanks

Ian

Definitely needs some changes. Can you provide the configurable link from the bottom of the report you posted?

Made the changes I would recommend. Unless you have a specific need for the 9950X3D I think the 9800X3D more than covers your needs. I'm a varying dabbler and I get along great with a 7800X3D which the 9800X3D has a fair bit more power than for working tasks.

You were in the Workstation configurator rather than high end gaming. This would have limited your selections. Feel free to feed back or query on any of the changes.
