Looks perfect for me. Just be sure to configure the second 512GB drive as your scratch/cache drive so that your software runs at peak performance :)

Everything I've dealt with in Adobe is memory heavy. Don't let anything hold you back though, having the cache drive will make it all a breeze.

Surprised that's a new thing to you :D

One last thing pleaseee, is it possible to upgrade the case to one of those led ones? Or is it best i stick to this mesh one as it better for airflow

Many thanks

The coolermaster masterbox k500 or the mastercase h500 get decent reviews for airflow and have rgb fronts. I'd avoid ones like the spec-delta which have the fans enclosed - it limits their benefits

My preference is always the X570, it's a stunning case with excellent thermal properties.

Thank you mr scotster was waiting for your approval! Many thanks

To be fair, the H/K500s are technically quite sound. I just plain don't like them haha. If you like the look of them then there aren't any airflow issues (model dependent, I don't know the models well enough to know which one there was issues with).

Edit: It's the masterbox MP something or other that's a bit ropey. The H500 and K500 are fine as far as I am aware.... just not very pretty :D

Wow what a beautiful case the corsair 570x

Going to upgrade to this rather than the FRACTAL MESHIFY C BLACK GAMING CASE

Thanks for the 570x recommendation mr scotster its beautiful and apparently has great airflow/thermal properties

Many thanks!

Hi guys i put my order through 2 days ago😁 just a quick question please??

Guy on the phone said to me that the following motherboard that is in the configuration...
ASUS® TUF X570-PLUS GAMING (USB 3.2 Gen 2, PCIe 4.0, CrossFireX) - RGB Ready!

He said that the pc specialiss technical team feel that this motherboard can only take 64gb of ram and not the 128 that it is made for

I know i know 64gb is a lot of ram currentlty but just asking question for in the future as in 4/5 years time, if i wanted to add extra ram on this motherboard, is this information true from what he said or false? Any advice would be apreciated! Many thanks

In 4 or 5 years time you'll likely be onto a new system. DDR5 (maybe even 6) will be out. Massive leaps will have been made in CPUs, Chipsets, etc, etc.

Also, there will have been BIOS updates on the motherboard to correct any limitation errors on the current motherboard.

In other words, don't worry about it ;)
