Any PC builders here? Just ordered parts for my new system

Just ordered the first parts for my new workstation, to take advantage of some Prime Day deals.

My goal is to build a system that will be sufficient for several years. It’s replacing a system built with an A6-7400K CPU with 16GB ram, which I did as a budget build ~3 years ago.

Ordered:

  • Asus TUF B450M-Plus motherboard
  • AMD Ryzen7 3800X CPU
  • Corsair Vengeance LPX 64GB RAM
  • Corsair Carbide Series 275Q Mid-Tower Case

Still TBD:

  • 1tb SSD (probably Crucial)
  • 8gb video card TBD
  • modular power supply TBD

I don’t play games, but I do a lot of work in Photoshop and some video editing with Premiere Pro & After Effects, any suggestions for a suitable graphics card?

I recommend a Nvidia GEForce GTX 1070, includes 8gb of graphic memory and it’s way useful in Corel Painter 2020, it’s pretty good at ZBrush and works flawlessly with Autodesk 3ds Max with high poly settings, suitable for rendering videos with Sony Vegas without any issues.
