Hey Linus community, I have been saving for a while now and I would like to spend about 4k on a pc. I need it to be good at video editing and I will be doing a lot of gaming on ultra settings. This price range include peripherals (mouse, mouse mat and keyboard) I would prefer an Intel and nvidia based build.

Thanks heaps

I'd personally say, your signature seems to fit the bill fairly well. Why not get that?

I really wish that we'd just make organic hardware already, that grows and adapts to the demands it needs to meet. That way, grannies' computers can be floppy sacks of organicness and the 12 year old Minecrafters will look like the guys that only do bicep curls, and the nerdy programmers will finally have justice, with their body-builder rigs that skipped leg day.
