I'm thinking of building a new PC and I seem to have missed 2 years of tech news, so help me.

It should be nVidia+intel configuration. However, I also do a bit of video editing and 3D rendering as well. Heard that Ryzen is just for that.

I just need a new CPU Tower and no keyboard, mouse, monitor etc....

My budget is around $850-$900 and I'm not in the US or the UK, so adding tax to a $250 GPU = $275-$300. Same with other parts.

in your case, ryzen should be better & consider something like this thinking you have to pay extra.

A lot like @Fardin put in but I traded memory size for memory speed, and put in a slightly better PSU and a motherboard that will give slightly better overclocking potential. All of that comes down to more cost in my build for less memory but more OC potential depending on the luck of the silicon lottery.
