I am building a PC for my brother to use with FL studio/Ableton Live and light video editing. I know I posted on this build already but I have upgraded It and now want to see If anyone can cut the cost on some parts. The priority is music software (FL studio/Abelton Live) and the video editing will be light and 1080P. 16GB of ram is needed and a large core count processor. graphics card is not a huge concern because only light video editing will be done.
Here is what I am looking at

stick to the faster kit, you should be able to set it to close to its rated speed. otherwise it's fine. when you're mentioning someone, wait till you see their profile name and pic and click on it.
