Hi,

Looking for a new PC and think this will do the job, This will be used for programming, 3D Cad, 3d printing, Video editing etc - In not much of a game player so its not for that.

Thanks

Built a system base don Ryzen 1700 and GTX 1090 for a friend that does CAD, 3d work and 3d printing. Went with Ryzen 8 core/16 threads for CAD work that uses CPU for rendering as the more cores the better! overclocked to help a little as well
gtx 1080 along with GDDR5X for any rendering done off the GPU- Ti is almost same power but when RENDERING you'll see the gains with GDD5X , And i got the 11Gbps version for him which overclocked to 11.8Gbps! flies

price of coffeelake at the moment, worth looking in to X299 system, were Quad channel ram can help- slapping a 8700K version screams gamer, 8700 non K would have done the trick with a basic £120 pound board - the board you selected is a Gamer and Overclockers Boner!
 
Thanks - the one thought about the high spec is the assumption that it will last me 5 or more years before I need to think about upgrading again - not sure if that logic works

in reality is should last you a long time, but if something can do it slightly cheaper- better and has a better option to upgrade, its worth the look into.
the Ryzen Chip socket is good for another 2 generations, AMD in 2 years time might release a mainstream 12 core design which would be awesome for cad rendering- at the moment its on their High end systems and expensive, In a few years time you could pick up on of those second hand etc etc , but who knows what amd will do.
also the 8 Core would last you longer for cad then 6 core ryzen .

do you do rendering at all ?
