Just want to make sure this build will all work okay so I wont have issues. This build will be primarily used for video/photo editing and then some gaming. I set my budget to $700 but was hoping for something under $600. The main programs used will be Adobe family products working on 1080p video and photos and would like to run most of modern games at Med-High settings and up with 30+ FPS. I dont plan on over-clocking or doing anything crazy. The list I came up with has a Xeon CPU and R9 270 and just wanted to make sure that is a good combo. I choose the Xeon because a lot of people said it is basically the i7 without integrated graphics for a lot cheaper since I am running a dedicated GPU. Other than that I already have a 2TB Drive,OS and peripherals to add to the build.
So, is there anything I need to add to the build or would you go a different route?
