Hello guys, thanks for the support. I am looking to buy a new computer to work mostly with after effects and maya, and also for gaming, online games and dragonage/assassin's creed solo type of games. My budget is about 900 pounds. I made this spec but i am not sure if i chose the right thing, very far from being an expert here :)
Thanks again in advance for your help.

Keynes spec is very good I think - it has a much better GPU (important for gaming).

However you should be aware that it doesn't support SLI (although you would need a larger PSU for this in any case) and also doesn't have WIFI so you would need a WIFI card if this is required.
