Hello I'm planning on building a gaming PC this summer and am currently thinking of going Ryzen, I've put together a part list and would like your feedback or recommendations to help me make a decision. This machine will not only be used for gaming but I'm planning on running VMs and maybe do some video editing and rendering. I also like running multiple programs at once hence why i chose Ryzen but i want to hear what the TJ community has to say. My Budget is 1200 and the part list is as follows:
