Hello,
I am building a desktop for the first time. This machine is more like a toy for me at the moment since I have a laptop for daily tasks.
I will eventually be using this machine for video/photo editing, gaming, and programming.
I would like any advice with the following list (also a confirmation that everything should be compatible with one another would be wonderful):
