I wanted to add a second picture to the original post but could not find a way. My apologies if it is not all right to submit a second post shortly after the first. Please let me know and I will delete this post.

Based on some of the comments, I decided to build a relatively high-end configuration. I would love to hear your thoughts on this new build.

My goal is to play video games at 144 Hz and 1440p and perform heavy photo/video editing. And 4K in the future when I upgrade my existing monitor. Also I would like to keep this build for at least 5 years if not more. In other words, I don't want to spend any more money in the next 5+ years.

Update: After much deliberation I ended up with the following build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RCNvwc

It all went great. Still waiting for the graphics card to arrive.

Thank you all for the comments!

I agree with the comments about the HDD being a questionable choice. My question would be if 1000W is really required for this build. Usually I see 1000W for multi-GPU builds. Your processor is 180W and your GPU is 355W. It seems like you could easily get away with 750-800W and save some cash. Maybe that could go into a larger SSD?
