Hi everyone. I need to build Photoshop/Adobe Illustrator PC with occasional movies, youtube and things like that. Budget is pretty thight so I was thinking about this. What do you think?

FX 8320
Gigabyte 970a UD3p
EVO 212 cooler (Anything cheaper that can hold 8320? It's not really that important, just asking)
R7 250 2GB gddr3 (any cheaper solution if gpu is not important?)
16gb ddr3 2x8 1600 I guess this is fine
Evga 500b for psu
HDD 1tb toshiba 7200 sata 3
pc case - http://hr.ms-start.com/proizvodi/ku%C4%87ista_gaming-ku%C4%87ista/MS%20MONSTER%20gaming%20ku%C4%87i%C5%A1te%20bez%20napajanja%20s%20crvenim%20LED%20ventilatorom

Is this fine for photoshop/illustrator where focus is logo design

Power supply is just fine, paired with that CPU and GPU. Dropping down to an FX-6300 shouldn't give you any issues at all. You should be just fine. I'd just ask on the forum recommendations for a cooler, and then you should be set.

That cooler is nowhere to be found where I live. South-east Europe. Also I know amd cpus are little bit hotter and draw more watts from psu. Is 500b evga for psu ok? And also would dropping down to fx 6300 be a big mistake? Remember no gaming on this pc. It would be made for work on photoshop and illustrator.

212 Evo works great with the 8320, even at full load and 4.5 GHz.

However, have you priced out an i5 build with SSD (speed!!!) and dumped the graphics card requirement? May be around the same price. Largely depends on what you do with Photoshop, but I have used it quite successfully on iGPU systems.

how much is your budget? AMD might struggle under the load, I had 6 core AMD machine for premiere pro, it was taking over 20minutes to complete 3 minute 4k video, I switched to i5 6600k and overclocked it, everything else is the same, getting about 8 minutes now, not sure why though
