I'm finally upgrading my 7 year old xps tower, i7 2600k.  Has been a great pc but just am ready to get updated.  There are so may different towers I'm not sure where to go to; xps, g5, or alienware, the r8 or 9??  I will be using it for photo and video editing, mysql, and then general browsing and email.  All work related, no gaming.  Could someone give me some suggestions? I was thinking now of a 9700 with 16gb ram and a 1060ti graphics card and a 512 ssd and I won't go much over $1000 with that but just don't know if I should stick with xps tower or try one of the gaming rigs even though I wouldn't use it for gaming. Thanks
