Final version of this submission if possible, updated the Motherboard and GPU as well as some smaller changes. Any other suggestions appreciated!
Approximate Purchase Date: I'm aiming to buy within the next 3 months if possible, soon rather than later.
Budget Range: current budget is roughly £1500 - £2500
System Usage from Most to Least Important: I primarily will use it to game, but will also be doing video editing and illustration further down the line.
Location: currently buying in the UK
Your Monitor Resolution: I will be gaming at 2560 x 1440p @144hz
Additional Comments: ideally trying to cut costs down from the current list, but not trying to sacrifice quality if possible.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: upgrading from my old R9 390 from 6 years ago, been having screen crashes, loud noises and generally just unable to run the newest games.
