Hey guys, I am looking for a new desktop that needs to be used for creative and gaming. I use Adobe photoshop, premiere pro, after effects and also dimension for 3d modeling. I would also like to be able to play Forza and Star Wars Battlefront. (I already have a hard drive for games so I did not include one on the list) My budget for this build is $1,700USD

 

I have pre-built this desktop and an idea of what I think i need:

Please let me know what you guys think and what I could do to make this build even better.

1920X is somewhat of an odd choice, but it's incredibly great for 199$ so fuck it.

Other than that, looks good; i'd switch the 970 evo for a sabrent rocket and 2060 super for a 5700 xt though
