just wondering what people think of this setup, and if they have any ideas on changes, which could make it cheaper or better without spending more.

What's it for? It's extremely unbalanced

 

[granty]

mainly photo and video editing, gaming isn't my main focus but want the option to be there. also want it to last and be a bit future proof.

 

[Steveyg]

This would be a much better use of your money mate, for one it's balanced but it's also got well matched parts that make the most of your budget to get the most ompf for the cash

Will edit photo and video well and game excellently, I'd like to recommend an Nvidia video card simply because they do still have the edge in editing I believe but they are soo outrageously priced they are almost impossible to recommend when AMD are offering so much power for a lot less

The Intel 13900K is just straight up no recommended it's impossible to cool and completely outmatched but AMD's 7950X

Thank you, that helps, especially the price. i did think about an AMD processor but wasn't to sure.

I would probably opt for an Nvidia GPU to be honest. Unfortunately there's more than an edge in it at the moment. You really need to close your eyes when you're purchasing one, as they are so stingy with the vRAM..... but the hardware encoding is quite a bit ahead, especially if the RT cores are being used.

Is it the Adobe suite you're using for the editing?

Yeah its mainly adobe, I would like to go nvidia. But it's biting the bullet and spending that extra to get one
