New Builder Looking for opinions

[sniperfreak117]

I'm looking for suggestions on what I could do differently with this build. I'm trying to keep the cost around $1500 and yet maintain a good build for gaming and minor graphic editing.

If there's a better alternative for some of the parts, please let me know.

Looks good but I personally wouldn't spend that much on a case
