I'd go with 2 to 3 SSD's 

 

The machine at work used for Premiere Pro has 1x256gb SSD for OS/Creative Cloud, 1x256gb SSD for scratch, 1x2tb SSD for working projects and a 12tb HDD for archived projects.

Separate SSD for scratch is probably a waste, given the OS SSD is idle when Photoshop or such is being used.

As others have said SSD, I run Adobe apps & Maya for 3D, two SSD drives. 

 

That Quadro card with 10 bit colour is nice for Adobe compositing, but you won't notice any benefit unless you have a 10 bit display as well (expensive). Otherwise it will be quite slow for modern games if you're into that & a cheap GTX card will outperform it.

 

Will it have Windows 8.1... not 10...?
