Is there any specific reason you went with the X670-E? Unless you need all the features of it, I'd recommend dropping to a B650 board. Windows also doesn't have to be $140.

PLEASE STOP [Killing] ME I WILL GIVE Y OU ANOTHER DEAL.

I recommend you not to buy the Windows 11 version at that price (didn't know Microsoft still uses DVD's for their Win copies). You can literally purchase a Win 11 Pro activation key, from legit online retailers, for a fraction of the price on your list, like 20-25 pounds, depending on the site. You pay and you almost instantly receive the Win product activation key after the payment is confirmed.

13700kf + 4080 + 64gb 3600c18

 

If you need the vram more than you need gpu compute power you can go for a used 3090 or 2

 

No idea how much ram you need but budget allows for 128gb of ram if you really need that much

AFAIK Adobe doesn't have MDA Explicit support. That 2nd is just going to go down the drain and up into UK utilities pocket because fuck them.

Also:

Quote

Premiere Pro (and video editing in general) is a very strong area for Intel with its “Core” line of processors. They have a significant advantage due to the Quick Sync technology found on the models that include an iGPU, which can be used for hardware decoding and encoding of H.264 and HEVC codecs. In the case of Premiere Pro, Quick Sync tends to give higher performance than using the GPU for decoding, but it also allows for a wider range of codecs to be used. In fact, the performance is so much higher that it tends to skew the Overall Score in our benchmark, and we are likely going to have to adjust how we calculate the scoring in future versions of our benchmark to weigh the results more evenly across various codec types.

Cant go fused, the iGPU is another half of why Raptor Lake is a good content creation CPU.

226W saving compared to 13700+3090 combo. In a year of 8 hours a day of use, that would be 200 GBP saving.
