Its been almost 4 years since i last built my pc ( in Sig ) and its starting to show its age when i do multiple photo stacking and editing, so i have decided to bite the bullet and build a new system.
it will be used mainly for photo/video work and occasional gaming, it will be expected to last another four years and have enough speed and storage to last me that long.
Below is what i have looked at but i will admit to being a bit behind the times with specs.
how does it look and can it be improved for my budget £3000
i have looked at the two ssd drive set up as one for OS/Programs and the other as my work horse
