Edit: For people who saw this build before i edited this, stupid website didn't save changes

You should get an XFX or Sapphire 380 so the Red doesn't clash

For editing 16gb of ram is highly recommend. What will you use for storage? Will you game more or edit more(priority)?

And White Haven? The internal color scheme is all over the place.

I noticed some of my changes did not save, i had a segate 2tb beforehand. I'm going to be gaming more than editing.

Nah trust me, you want speakers. I kept all your peripherals the same because i wasn't sure if you were deadset on them or not.(Although i was tempted on chaning the panel, but of course the build's called White Haven)

 

If you're not going with anything high-end i say get some Amazon Basic speakers, they work well and would be cheaper than your current picked option.
