Second opinion

Budget (including currency): $2,500 USD

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Video editing, recording game play, Minecraft, Photoshop, daily use.

Other details (Here is what I got so far https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ddNBGL, I know it's pretty expensive but I have the money and want to start getting the parts soon. I'm going to have two monitors and 1440p. One is going to have a refresh rate of 60Hz but have better color accuracy for color grading and photo editing. The other will be running at 240Hz and will be used for recording game play. This is my first build, so I would like a second opinion on the parts before I start buying them.

Nice choice so far. I would how ever recommend trying to get a 3080 12gb version because more vram is always better for editing. 32 Gbs of ram is sufficient. If the front panel of the case is air flow then you should have more than enough coolant capacity with that 360 Aio. Over all I’m impressed by the level of understanding for what is needed for your specific use case. Good choice to go straight to a 1000 Watt Psu btw.

I would recommend these changes. Saves you some money for the monitors and/or other peripherals. Air CPU coolers are way easier to maintain, and can perform the same as most AIOs.
