she wanted a white case to go with the white monitor. so i choose a corsair 4000d airflow in white.

do i need a better gpu for video/photo editing.

 

note to all the fan boys she wants intel so she will get intel customer is always right and get what they wants. idc about your opinion on the matter thats not what im asking about.

also i choose a k sku instead of a non k sku due to availability

obv i will go 12th gen if it is available when i go to build this

probably a beefier gpu to take advantage of the 750w psu

im questioning whether i need it for the tasks at hand. the psu was put in incase i needed a bigger gpu later. she just says she wants a good computer and will be photo editing and video editing along with daily tasks.

She doesn't really need anything better then. 1650 is pretty decent for editing especially if she's not doing anything super complex.

If you want a build now I would go with intel since am4 is at the end of its life, since your building a pc for gaming you only really need an i5 12600k and RTX 3080 to get the best performance, have linked a pcpartpicker list below

The 12600k is probably quite a bit more powerful than your 10850k.

what do you think. idc about making it cheaper. am i gonna have trouble with height for noctua cooler? 

[DCCFan]

Looks good. Have you thought about going with a water cooler?  Most really high end PCs I've seen are water cooled but if you prefer an air cooler, Noctua is probably one of the best. Maybe someone else will know more about air coolers.

for that CPU, use a 3080ti maybe (once prices have settled down) and also, i recommend a at least 280mm AIO cooler with that processor cus it can run hot while under load. 

 

If you don't have a budget, I'd get a DDR5 memory kit and a ddr5 motherboard as well.

yea i dont like watercooling due to all the maintence that it needs and the risk of damage to other components. the noctua cooler competes even with some of the best aio's/

i though about going ddr5 but i like asus and the tuf series board and they dont yet have a ddr5 version yet so.

Actually aside from the overpriced ssds it looks ok for being a balls to the walls build, i was more expecting a pile of rubbish with overpriced watercooling and rgb that costs more than a proper workstation with hedt cpus like amd epyc

 

Ssds wise have a look at firecuda 530 as those should be abit faster than 980 pro

AIOS dont need any maintanance, atleast the good ones anyway.

 

 

Custom water cooling needs maintanance and costs a lot, but if you get a decent AIO you dont need to do anything to it

From my knowledge with the new higher end autos you now have to keep the liquid topped up as it will go away after sometime. That means taking the aio out if I can’t fill it from the port while in the pc. That’s maintenance I don’t wanna deal with air cooler just get a can of air and blow on it done.

I hate rgb ugh gross. Not a fan of maintenance of water cooling and the risk for a potential leak. Not to mention if a pump goes bad then I’m stuck until I can save up hundreds of dollars again.

Also the firecuda 530 is 100$ more each are they really any better

Abit better read/write than the 980 pro, though you may be able to get cheaper high end gen4 ssds like crucial p5 plus, rocket 4 plus, sn850, aorus nvme

it takes like 5 years to get to that point. after 5 years i would buy another AIO.

Warranty. also good AIOs tend to last over 10 years, i would still change the AIO after 5 years

Maybe a second monitor? Or one really big one for immersive movie experiences.

[hiimFred]

Tbh I would go 4k monitor with these components. Or if it's 1440p I would go 27". 32" is too big for 1440p I'd say.
