Hey i'm looking for a bit of a steer for some new hardware, will be used for photo and video editing (as well as a bit of gaming)
so far i reckon this setup will fit the bill but looking for any potential bottlenecks I might not be aware of ( the last build I did was about 10 years ago so bit out of the loop) budget is a huge issue at the mo so will be buying in stages over a good few months so will probs start with the gfx card as I reckon it will work in my current aged beast (asrock n68c, amd athlon 11 x4 640, 8gb ddr3, geforce Gtx660 2gb)

ASUS PRIME B450M-A Motherboard (bundled with the ryzen)
SAPPHIRE RADEON RX 570 NITRO+ 8 GB
CCL 3.9GHz AMD Hexa Core Ryzen 5 2600
Crucial P1 1TB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD
Crucial Ballistix 32GB Kit (2 x 16GB) DDR4-3600

Anywhere I've overlooked or where I can get better bang for buck/higher performance? Realise I've got storage to add too but will swap over ssd from current, also not sure how big a psu to get so any recommendations welcome!

TIA
 
Yeah I reckon. I only really edit 1080p and some AE at the mo so would be good to have some upgradability later but if I can build something in that price range that doesnt **** the bed without creating proxies I'd be happy!
 
Hey @Minibiker, I had a good read and went for the 3600, tomahawk max, 32gb corsair, asus 1660 super (seemed to be marginally faster than the other brands versions if I'm not totally wrong), 1tb adata m2 ssd and a Corsair CV650 650W to give me a bit of headroom for later. Works like a treat so far though I've not done any heavy lifting, did a quick test on some timelapse footage and the render out was pretty painless. Cheers again for the help!
