Budget (including currency): Around 700 dollars

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Some gaming, productivity, and good amount of editing

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

I need something good for editing as well as gaming. I prefer an RTX Graphics card. I also need suggestions for a case that has RGB(no pressure though) that fits with my budget.

 

If you have any other suggestions please do tell me.

The PSU I’m not sure about.

80+ white tends to have a bad rep for safety.  The PSU tierlist on this site might want to be checked.

 

The Nvidia GPU has features you may not want that you are paying for because it’s Nvidia.  A 5600xt is faster for the same money if you don’t.  Rtx has proven itself to be basically useless for actual ray tracing though that noise cancelation thing is kind of cute.
Im useless for RGB and my views on cases are frequently “get the cheapest one you can find.  Plywood boards are often free and they work” which is not exactly popular here.  Imho the entire rgb thing is a racket, and a fairly nasty one.  Now if you just want case lighting that doesn’t do color changing that I could maybe help with.  

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Not saying it’s better or worse, but a 1600af is now at 104.99 on amazon
