Attending college for Digital media and im taking a website development and photoshop class what specs for a pc build do i need? 

I also plan on doing youtube so i will be recording HD with a elgato(ps4).

Which part is most important for multitasking?

I picked up a 1950x for $410usd but im selling it the MOBO prices are ridiculous.

Also i prefer to go AMD route.

Any upcoming sales?

2700/1700 would do fine for those tasks.

how much better is the 2700x?

You can get a similar performance by overclocking  the 2700, but its a fair bit better if you want to avoid that

ok So how important is gpu?

There will be editing/productivity.

For photoshop and web design? Not extremely. Video editing very much so.
