Hello all,

I want to build a small machine, mostly used for:

- Gaming (high graphics and playable, not fussed about anything higher/ultra or 4k);
- Editing (large files on Photoshop with a lot of layers etc. but nothing too crazy);
- Decent storage for media
- Will last me 3-4 years without me needing to upgrade and don't want to overclock;

Have my monitor, mouse, keyboard etc. from my old build and have a copy of Windows.

Budget of around £1000, not sure if I'm going overkill with the below or there might be something better/cheaper since I don't want to spend more money than needed?

Would appreciate any help! This will be my first ITX also. Just don't want a huge tower anymore.

If you went with Ryzen you could save yourself a few quid, say a R5 2600, which is about the same as the 8600k but around £100 cheaper. Other than that, looks a decent build.
 
adobe favours intel, selected 9th gen due to it running cooler and faster. also Z board to allow you to overclock to 5ghz and take advantage of the chip

SSD to act as OS , apps and scratch disk .

rx580 performs same as gtx 1060, freesync screens are cheaper, also get 2 free games
