No gaming, but audio editing and likely video editing as well.  Mostly what
I do is writing (neovim + (Xe)Tex) and editing (lots of high-resolution
images of medieval manuscripts).  Oodles of stored information, too, with
complex structures.

For the main unit, I'm willing to spend up to $3K or so.  Less is good,
more is possible.
