As above really. I've decided to build a small form factor pc which I can use for general productivity, streaming and crucially some photo and video editing at 4k. Also for listening to high res music. I want to keep this under £1000 if possible but its crucial that the end result is small and relatively easy to transport. Will have to pick up a monitor but this will be an added cost to the £1000.

Any advice would be great. Excited to order the components and start!
 
Exo Male, thanks for the recommendations. Was just going to post asking if it was possible to fit what I want in an ITX build. Would it be possible to upgrade what you've listed in the future? Or is the build limited by the form factor?
 
Thanks for the replies everyone, some great advice there.
On the subject of cooling, would it be possible to use a water cooler with such a build?
 
Thanks guys for the recommendations. Wondering if I may have to re-think this one. Was going to build a small form factor PC to carry out video and photo editing whilst overseas. My rationale was it is much cheaper than the equivalent laptop and would have much better performance. At the end of my time overseas, I could then travel back with the PC in my hand luggage. Now realise that might be pushing it in terms of size and weight (max is 7 -10kg) plus has anyone actually done this, ie put their build in their hand luggage on a plane?
 
Thanks everyone, been reading the advice and suggestions with interest. Just about to look at an NUC and the Skyreach 4 Mini.
