TLDR I’m building a pc to run games as well as do my uni 3D work (mostly Maya, Zbrush and unreal) on. I had a budget of £700 but I’ve already exceeded it and haven’t even decided on my ram. absolute maximum I can really spend is 1k and I’m aware I won’t be able to do super high poly models without a more expensive setup but I just want a pc that I can do at least some work on.

any ram recommendations or advice on the current components I’ve chosen? also if it’s awful please go easy on me I’ve never built a pc before 🙏

also I’m from the UK if that wasn’t already obvious by the currency.
