Hello, I've decided to build my first PC in 10 years. Primary use will be hobbyist (serious) photography editing. I tend to buy for longevity, but don't want to break the bank. I was hoping to have some experts take a look at the config and point out any major missteps. I know there may be some AMD announcements at CES. I've had fun researching and while I don't plan to be a major overclocker, I may experiment some for fun.

Thanks in advance!
