Hi

Looking to buy a new Desktop
Main purpose is general use, possibly some video editing, and less likely gaming, but would still like the option.

Advice appreciated on my Spec below.
Trying to keep to a budget of £1400
Will pick up a GPU separately, and I already have a Sound Card.

I chose the Ultra 7 as it uses the latest Socket so thought that would be worth it for future proofing.
Had hoped to have Thunderbolt 5 future ability but I think the MoBo doesn’t support and the one that does is Pre Order / Too Expensive.

Lastly,
Is it worth waiting till January, or just buy now?
