Hey all, im planning on a new build in the coming couple of months, before committing i thought it best to ask for some opinions / advice as i havent built a system since dual core amd athlons were cutting edge lol.
Ive deliberated long and hard over all of my components but am happy to look at alternatives.
My system will be used for Gaming, Video Rendering and Photoshop mainly.
Im looking to get as high end a system as i can for my budget, which is about £2000 but anything that isnt vital for getting the system up and running I can always look at getting later on.
I already have a gaming mouse and speaker setup that i used with my gaming notebook but everything else will need to be purchased.

Thankyou very much for any advice youd like to give, had this all in my head for a while and would be nice to have an fresh outside perspective on it all.
