Wanted a mid-range gaming PC, also to use it for music recording, video editing and multitasking which tax my current computer. My budget is around £2,000 but some of these choices were shots in the dark, was hoping somebody in the know could tell me anywhere I went wrong. I genuinely have no clue about cooling for example. Also wasn't entirely sure between the i7s and i9s.
