Hi all,
Ive posted on here recently, I am looking to build something to achieve this:
- Very quick
- Lightroom capable
- Multiple VMs (Mainly Windows 10/7 and some Linux)
- Some gaming at 1440p (if possible, if not, 1080p)
Budget: Recently raised to £1,500
I've put this spec together, although I intend to look at a zen 2 CPU when they become available on this site. I know this might come at a little more money but could be worth it potentially.
I have two main questions but im more than open to other ideas:
2. Is the PCIe storage I've selected worth it? it'll hold my OS and a couple of applications, 512gb is fine size wise. ( I already have larger mechanical drives ready for this system)

I have two main questions but im more than open to other ideas:
- 1. I am trying to work out how much cooling if sufficient to keep temps reasonable and the system nice and quiet. Do I need extra case fans? Is the AIO 100X the best option for me & this case?
2. Is the PCIe storage I've selected worth it? it'll hold my OS and a couple of applications, 512gb is fine size wise. ( I already have larger mechanical drives ready for this system)
