Hi everyone, I am new to the forum and am planning to buy a new PC for: Mid - high end gaming, Sound editing, Image editing (possibly PS in the future), content streaming.
Some notes: I have gone for a slightly more powerful PSU to give room for upgrades in the future. I realise I could get by with a 450W but am also keen for a quieter PSU.
Advice on cooling would be welcome. I am really not fussed about case lights and anything fancy.
Thanks!
