Any major brand is ok (MSI, Asus, Asrock). I would pick Intel, one of the last generation (13th 14th). i7 is fast enough, i9 runs very hot and needs max power. add 32Gb Ram or more. I would go for a liquid cooler on an i7 or i9. Peak power is simply too much for most air coolers (I ruined an i7 on aircooling). BeQuiet power supplies, aircoolers and system cabinets run very quietly. Last but not least: add a nvidia GPU, something like a RTX 3060 at minimum. Lightroom, photoshop etc all use the GPU. Denoise drops from 9 minutes to 9 sec on an rtx3060
