Price range is $2000 USD maybe $2500

 

It’s use is going to mainly be video editing but I would like to be able to play games On it when I’m not using it for editing.

 

I would like to have 2 monitors at the start of use of the computer but would like to move to 3 in the future


I would need to buy a copy of windows 10 but don’t need any other peripherals 

 

and my reasons for upgrading is because I don’t currently have a working computer

So you don't have any displays right now ?

Anyway, this should get you the best video editing performance and will be good for 1440p gaming too.

This is a very solid list. Possibly add a ~4TB harddrive or larger to store your RAW video files as well... Its pretty crazy how quickly a 1 TB SSD can fill up with RAW photos and ESPECIALLY video. I shoot a D850 and have ~2.5 TB of RAW's, and my damn lightroom catalog alone is ~400 GB.

 

Thankfully, harddrives are pretty cheap, you can get a 4 TB for ~80-100 bucks. Possibly even consider a 6 TB, and if that fills up you can always add another later.

You'd probably be better served by a PCIE 4.0 SSD for video editing. Air cooling is more reliable long term, so I'd use one of those, instead.

There are a few things not so great on your list, like your choice of motherboard, ssd and power supply.

Consult the tier list for motherboards and power supply on this forum before recommending builds.

I was told the WD Blue series was pretty good, maybe they meant only the SATA drives?

That's the thing. That ssd uses a sata connection, even though it has m.2 form factor and is as expensive as the nvme drives.

Ok question, the 3950x is sold out At bestbuy Near me and I was just browsing and saw the 3900x was roughly $300 less would that be a compromiseable cpu and compatible cpu with everything else in this build?

You'll get a few less cores, but still a solid cpu and will work with everything else
