Hi I need some help with a build I am getting an error code with the motherboard I don’t know what it means.

Also while I have you I am trying to cut costs as much as possible without losing performance. With your build tool my main purpose for this desktop computer, in order of importance is: Photo Editing, Motion Design, Video Editing (Photoshop, Lightroom, After Effects, and Premiere Pro). Is there anything I can change in the list to lower price. I would like to be able to:

  • Connect my Benq sw271 with USB-C connectivity to transmit video and data with only one cable.
  • Handle large file sizes, intensive photo effects, 50+ Photoshop layers
  • Edit 4-8k video without lag and cut render time
I know that is a lot and I appreciate your help and advice on this thank you.

That Error means you might need to update your BIOS to support the 5950X CPU. Mostly, though the bios is already updated in the factory.

I like your build, overall, though the CPU is a bit price-inflated and usually goes for around 750$. For smooth 4-8k Editing, I wouldn't skip any of the parts you have listed right now.
