Hi, I'd appreciate a sense check and any recommendations for the following build.
Location: UK
Budget: £1500 (draft spec below is slightly over which I can live with, but not looking to go any higher).
Usage: Gaming at 1440p (mixed genre, e.g. Elden Ring, Forza Horizon 5, but not usually FPS), video editing, productivity
Additional: I'm looking to replace an 8-9 year old non-gaming PC, so no parts to be re-used. I'm not planning to overclock. Depending on how the market and game demands go, it's possible I'll look in say 1.5-2 years to replace the GPU, so have been aiming to spec this for DDR5 and minimise the need to upgrade other parts at the same time. No peripherals needed at present. Currently have dual 1080p monitors, aiming to replace those with dual 1440p in a couple of months, but I'll do the PC build first.
