Hello everyone Im new here and generally Im new to pc building.I am getting a new pc this September because  I have a decent budget(+,- 1000 €) and I need it to work,game,play media.To be quick i will use the system for a)Work:photoshop,illustrator,indesign,after effects and maybe some video editing in the future.

B)game in 2k in 60fps(those are fine with me because i wont be playing competitivly)

C)browsing ,music ,stream videos 

I Would like to be able to runn everything very snapy and without issues(if possible to have everything open and multitask)I think that my build is going to be i78700k,1070ti,z370 mobo,16gbram,650+psu,(i already have a case fractal design meshify c),air cooling (dark rock pro 3),and nvme +hdd.Am I going over kill ?Do you have any other good options for me?I would be gratefull.Every answer is great help,Thanks.

Welcome to the LTT forums! At the moment it is a bit difficult to recommend hardware for that time frame, because both Nvidia and Intel are rumored to be releasing new hardware by then, but otherwise the 8700k and the 1070ti are excellent options.

The Dark Rock Pro 4 has better memory compatibility. 

 

Instead of an NVMe drive you might consider getting a larger SATA III ssd. 

 

Unless you really want to overclock, consider an i7-8700 cpu on a B360 or H370 motherboard with a cpu cooler like the Cryorig H7. Performance quite close to a stock i7-8700K, (above idle, clocks are just 100MHz lower), at a significantly lower cost.
