A older gen AMD 5700G with a B550 would be less than 400 now. DDR4 Add around 60-80 bucks for 16gb kit and another 60-100 for a NVME drive. 550-600 all upgraded.

first what is budget range.....
then u prefer intel or amd....
then u will be re-using ur current gpu or buying new 1?

currently zen 4 is more future proof but the price not very friendly per performance.....
zen 3 is more price friendly.

i recommend asus mobo , 5 years still working..... my msi/giga mobo die after 3 years.

AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 8-core, 16-Thread​

$255​

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-core, 16-Thread​

$295​

with B550 mobo$450~$550

Crucial P3 1TB PCIe 3.0 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD​

$65
CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4$120
Cpu cooler$30~$50
TECWARE/Corsair 4000D/Lian Li with casing fans$40~$120
GPU 1070 $0
FSP 1000 watts $0

u can re-use your hdd/ssd as secondary drive.... but for system drive, i suggest m2....since so cheap now.
32gb ram is more than enough for photoshop or any gaming.
Total: less than $850
If zen 4 build, add another $200~$400


@BlackWing1977 need help on zen4 build.

Do you have a general price target, say 1500-2000?

For general usage just get Ryzen 5000, it has very good value and is also matured platform.

Ryzen 7000 is for people that want to get the most out of their 4000/7000 series GPUs.

$279

MSI PRO B650M-A​

$264

guess the blackwing busy......he did a lot of research on 7000 series tho
i didn't do much research on 7000 series... this will be the base build, less than $950
the good thing about 7000 series is come with integrated graphics... so if ur gpu spoil, can run without graphic card. Good for troubleshooting. then future proof... at least for another 3~5 years.
Good enough for photoshop but not sure able to carry your video editing.
For reference only, u may seek others for more professional advice. ;)

then ur 1000 watts psu...i really dunnoe how to utilize..... cause i only see those power hunger gpu build.

Got any clue what die is on the Gskill kit?

Cause I was thinking Kingston might be better since it is likely to be Hynix A die

No idea, mine is local set but local 5600 CL36 EXPO is about 10 dollars more than G-skill you listed

From the XMP kits that I checked through HWInfo (5600 CL-40 32GB and 64GB kit), the more recent production runs are using Hynix A-die

Since it is Hynix A-die, it should be able to work much more easily across most boards on XMP, and probably can do 6000 CL36 by manually setting and upping voltage slightly
