Hi,
I'm looking to build a PC to move away from console for gaming (mostly single play and RPGs) and for CAD/Modelling (Fusion 360, Hexagon Vero, Blender), I am building it to last a few years but be upgrade-able as needed.
List:
Case: Corsair 750D Obsidian (3 x 140mms inc)
Motherboard: ASUS STRIX Z390-F
CPU: Intel I9 9900k
GPU: EVGA Nvidia 2070 Super 1x (will be 2x in time with NV link)
RAM:4 x 8GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance
PSU:1000W Corsair HW1000i
1x 500GB NVME SSD Kingston
4TB Toshiba X300 HDD
Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooler.

Peripherals I'll sort in time - eyeing up 2 24" MSIs and razor for mouse and keyboard.

This is a first build for me so forgive for any errors in the list, done research as best I can.
Any advice will be muchly appreciated, if better motherboard available, or I can fit 2 NVMEs etc etc, I am Flexible-ish on budget but not willing to go nuts with the wallet.
I have a friend who will do the build and the like but I wanted to see how far I can do on my own as enjoying looking into it and wished I made the jump sooner.
Many Thanks
 
Thanks, I was looking at getting a SSD to add in as well as it has 2 slots for them in the tower at least.
Fair enough, I was looking at the AMD line as my friend said to go that way more as AMD are putting intel to shame in the current era but that's a different topic entirely.
 
Thanks guys muchly appreciated, making the swap in the basket.
Also meant to say, I'd be happy with anything over 1080 if I'm honest but ideally 1440 if possible.
 
Oh and is going is 2070s and NV link worth it, ie buy and fit 1 now and then later in the year or next year buy another and use NV link (instead of SLI) or am I better off upgrading to the newer model when needed, heard Nvidia 30 series on way eventually?
