Long overdue new build budget £1.5k

[doggo]

Afternoon all, or whatever time of day it is

I've been having some problems with my current aging system for a while and after a morning looking on OCUK I've decided to bite the bullet and build a new machine.

I'm looking for something with a reasonably good spec as I do the odd bit of video editing and some music work. I'm having to work with current stock availability on OCUK and have decided on the list below.

I've not really been keeping up with builds and compatibility etc so just wanted to know have I got anything wrong with the following:

1. Corsair Carbide 275R Midi Tower Gaming Case - White Tempered Glass (CC-9011133-WW) £82.99
1. Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro Intel Z390 (Socket 1151) DDR4 ATX Motherboard £189.95
1. Intel Core i7-9700K 3.6GHz (Coffee Lake) Socket LGA1151 Processor - Retail £398.99
1. Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 PC4-21300C16 2666MHz Dual Channel Kit - Black (CMK32GX4M2A2) £128.99
1. Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Gaming OC 6144MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £259.99
1. Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive £128.99
1. Corsair RMi Series RM650i 650W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply (CP-9020081-UK) £149.99
1. Corsair Hydro Series iCUE H100i PRO XT RGB Performance Liquid Cooler - 240mm
(CW-9060043-WW) £119.99
1. Seagate 2TB Barracuda 7200RPM 256MB Cache Internal Hard Drive (ST2000DM008) £59.99
1. Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound (3.5g) £6.49p Total: £1526.36p​

I've tried to keep a lid on the budget but as we all know dropping things in the basket can quickly add up. I think the above is a reasonably good build for what I need, I don't do any gaming or any thing like that.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the recomendations bagel. I'll have a look at that. As I say it's been a long time since I did a build and things have moved on a lot.
The problem I found is the total in the basket can quickly run away, I was just looking and there are some graphics cards that cost more than I want to spend

No worries, it's definitely weird to see AMD being recommended now for high end builds after so many years of intel domination! They have stepped up their game massively

I automaticly went for Intel as that's what I always have done. AMD always used to be just that bit behind Intel. Silly really I should have considered both.

Thanks Gray2233. AMD do seem to be favoured by the looks of things.

Thanks Freddie1980. I'm now going to have to give AMD a serious consideration given everyone so far has suggested AMD.

Thanks for the input folks.
