Budget (including currency): Ideally between 1300-1700. 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming/ Editing 

Other details (I alrdy have the mobo for 2 years, and a new sf750 psu + nzxt fans and going to upgrade to a 3070 with the parts mentiond, storage is just sitting there its not the final choice)

This is my first build/ second pc, bought pre built.

old pc was: 2060 6gb, R7 2700X, 16gb ram.

this is what im going to build in the few months to come, was wondering if there was anything wrong with it --> https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DtMjd9

Only 500gb of storage? Didn't you say you already had the MOBO? You can then cancel the price out.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/D22tzf

With the MOBO that you already have price canceled out you can easily fit a 4070 ti in there which would be great for 1440p.

My First PC
CPU: Ryzen 5 5600x
Cooler: Asus TUF Gaming LC240
Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix B550-f gaming
RAM: 4x8 GB Corsair Vengeance RS (3200 MHz, CL16)
Storage: 1tb Samsung 980 Pro
Graphics Card: Asus Dual RTX 2060 OC
Case: Deepcool Matrexx 50
Power Supply: Corsair RM650x
Headset: Razer Blackshark V2
Keyboard: Corsair K70 Pro Mini (Speed Silver switches)
Mouse: Razer Viper Mini
Only changes I have made is I sold the 2060 for $235 AUD and bought a Powercolor Red Devil 6700 XT for $400 second hand (it was barely used, think I scored a deal on Ebay with that).

I love Photography (Using a Canon 60D)

Love F1, my favourite team is Ferrari and my favourite driver is Leclerc

Also with the extra money (around 120) left in the budget you could buy another set of RAM.

Just the whole enchiladas buddy, youll be surprised at how much we would save here if you dont have the intent of keeping the PC fully functional.

I mean the entire specification of the current PC, ideally the receipt of the prebuilt itself if it was a "boutique" system where they take off the shelf components and make it into a built PC instead of a big box branded one like Dell or HP, as they usually include all the components used to help monthly bookeeping for the store itself.

The mobo is fine. Just to be sure you already have it? Also stick with the 3070. 4070 ti would be stupid for 1080p especially with that CPU, it would not be powerful enough to support it. You could go for a 3070 ti.

then you might be able to fit in a 7900 xt, but a 6900 xt or 6800 xt would be more realistic but the 7900 xt is better for the future (and 1440p)

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yLFBk9, I played around with the parts, this would be a much better build, 240 under budget and with a 5900x and a 6900XT. Also a bigger PSU thats cheaper, its 850W instead of 750W so you have plenty of space to overclock and upgrade. You an also buy yourself a nice set of custom cables from cable mod (I reccomend full cables not extensions since you have lots of money left in the budget) I think this would be the best PC for your budget. @SorryClaire and @filpoopinions?
