Hi, I'm in need of suggestions for a new build. I'm planning on building a new computer for my girlfriend since her iMac finally bit the dust. I haven't built a PC since I built my own back in 2014-2015 and I haven't been keeping up with the latest hardware out, so I'm not sure what's best at the moment.

Anyways, she's a marketing manager/graphic designer so she mostly uses the full Adobe CC suite and also plays FFXIV. No preference between Intel or AMD, and she'll need a monitor as well. Would like to stay under $1,000.00 but willing to spend up to $1,400.00 if it's worth it. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Meant to post this in Systems. Can a mod please move this?
