I aim to create a flexible tower setup that allows easy part replacement. My goal is to build a computer suitable for gaming, video editing, photo editing with Photoshop, and animation. I prefer simple lighting and want straightforward suggestions within a budget of 1500 to 2000 USD. Please let me know if you can provide a ready-made build or recommendations. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Here are some suggestions based on what I propose

You might want to purchase additional fans to improve airflow for your GPU. Alternatively, consider upgrading to a cooler with better performance than the FE 3080—options like ROG Strix, Gigabyte Eagle, or Aorus could work well.

Check if the price covers 1500 to 2000, counting the monitor. Also, confirm the resolution and refresh rate.

I own a monitor, which is a budget 4K TV that I rely on. However, I don't pay much attention to it.

Yes, there are differences between the three.

Strix and Aorus boast higher factory clocks, Strix stands out for its attractive RGB, and it works well with Corsair iCUE. Aorus comes in as the third option. Eagle and Windforce are more affordable choices since I don't like Asus' TUF lineup.

If I needed to construct a 2000 dollar PC immediately and focused on editing and gaming, I would opt for the model mentioned above. An 8 core processor at 5800X would suit workstation tasks well. Having 32GB of RAM would also be beneficial for editing purposes.

The amount ranges from 1500 to 2000 of a specific currency. Prices and certain items differ between the US, UK, Australia and other regions.
