Hi guys
I currently have quite an old system which dates about 4 years old. It was top spec at the time and the intention was to buy the best so it would last for a long time. Alas it is time again to put together a new system that will last for the next few years.
Can you nice people give me your views on what i have picked out below and if it needs some tweaking let me know.
I won't be using the machine for much gaming with my main focus being on Photoshop, Video Editing and other general powerhouse stuff.
