My main questions I have are the following:
Does anyone know if PC Specialist will offer the Intel Core i7 8850H in the near future?
Would the Nvidia GTX 1050Ti be suitable for my needs?
Do you think my HDD/SSD combo is the best selection?
Will this setup cause heating issues?
How loud would this setup be when operating the tasks within my needs?
Is there a better Chassis than the Recoil II for my needs?
Is there anything I should wait patiently for before buying this month that will make a positive difference on the final outcome?
