Hi guys,

This is my first build. Switching from Macbook Pro 2012 to PC. My budget is $1000. It will be used exclusively for photo editing. I do a lot of intensive editing and my MBP just isn't cutting it.

This is my first time building, just wanted some feedback on my build before I go ahead with it. Check it out!
