[Build Ready] Preliminary build ready, but still need some help.
I want to thank in advance anyone who would be willing to help me with this. I've spent quite a while saving up this money and I've not had a good computer for a long, long time, but I'm hoping to be able to change that. I'm trying to build a mainly gaming PC, but I'd prefer that it would be able to support higher end programs well enough too (PhotoShop, etc) for university purposes. Basically, this is what I've chosen so far:
