Hey guys,
Planning on building my first ever PC! I wondered if somebody would be so kind as to look over my specifications. My main purpose for the build is for high quality adobe video/photo editing, however I do love games and may upgrade at some point to make it a high-performance gaming PC.
Here are my thoughts -
Go with an intel i7-9700k processor with integrated graphics. I would prefer AMD but as the Ryzen 7 has no integrated graphics, so i would have to buy a GPU at the same time, and I was hoping to save money on my build by buying this later. Do people think this is sensible? I have been reading that AMD seem to be taking the edge on intel recently, but is the difference significant? Is it so significant that I should absolutely just find the extra cash and go AMD plus a GPU? If so, could they recommend me an AMD build starting with a Ryzen 7?
If not, please could you check over my Intel build and help me fill in the blanks? Thankyou!!
CPU: Intel i7-9700k
GPU: Integrated
RAM: Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3600MHz C18
Storage: Samsung 860 QVO 1 TB SATA 2.5" Internal SSD
Motherboard: ???? Something with blutooth and wifi ideally?
PSU: ???? I'm told something 600w and over will do?
Tower: Sahara P35 RGB tempered glasses gaming ATX case with 4 x Turbo Pirate 12cm True RGB case fans
I am open to suggestions to changing any of the above - especially if there is a cheaper alternative with similar function!
Thanks so much, looking forward to responses.
