Hi, first time putting together specs, so would love some feedback. 
My last PC was a premade tower, which I used for the past ~7 years until the motherboard conked out recently.
Basically looking to replace and update it. Plan to keep my old 1080p monitors. The build listed here is at the upper end of my budget; cheaper would be nice, but I'm happy paying ~£1,500 for a computer that easily does what I need and that won't feel too outdated too soon.
I want an all-round PC that can handle more demanding games like BG3; I don't really play any MMOs, though.
I do art and game dev as hobbies, usually sticking to Godot and other smaller programs. I do use DaVinci Resolve a fair amount for hobbies too, and sometimes dabble in Blender. Would be nice to try the other more intensive development programs out there in the future, but it's not something I really need to optimise for.
I tend to run various programs at once, working on art/music/gamedev at the same time - but that's possibly just a bad habit lol.
Thanks for reading, that's all the key info that I can think of. Any glaring issues?
