So this is my newest workstation PC, for Photoshop and Lightroom, on a Dell U3011 monitor @ adobeRGB !, and also Gaming (which i never seem to find the time for anymore).
[My previous (My new PC (Aug 2015) - Asus Maximus VII Hero) has become my Office PC. That also does Photoshop and Lightroom very well, but i use it merely for basic work related office photos at sRGB quality, on a Dell Monitor P4317Q].
I started collecting components in february this year. Studied many reviews ( textually as well as youtube-ally ) while carefully laying out my plan for myself in this post.

Yes, i'm a power user. I like storage, no it is actually very important to me.PCIe 4.0 provides an extreme bandwidth for extreme storage and peripherals. Four lanes of PCIe 4.0 give NVMe SSDs peak raw bandwidth of 7.9GB/s, compared to approximately 4GB/s from PCIe 3.0. Graphics cards in PCIe 4.0 x16 slots will have nearly 32GB/s of bandwidth available, laying the foundation for games with higher-resolution textures and letting machine-learning algorithms access more data faster than ever before.
DUAL PCIE 4.0 M.2
Dual PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots support up to type 22110 and provide NVMe SSD RAID support for an incredible performance boost. Create a RAID configuration with up to two PCIe 4.0 storage devices to enjoy the fastest data-transfer speeds on the 3rd Gen AMD Ryzen platform.
As is: optimum build- and components quality.
So i also selected: MSI Radeon 5700XT
Corsair M2 SSD
WD Gold HDD's
