I'm a graphic designer finally making the switch from a MacBook Pro to a custom PC build.
I will be using the pc for After Effects, Premiere, Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, C4D and Octane.
As I am new to building PC's I've been advised on a setup in my price range $1600~.
Would this be a good setup for me?
Would a Geforce GTX 1080 be worth the extra money, or will the 1070 do fine?
