Editing PC

[Bobby2099]

Budget (including currency): 2,000

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Adobe (After Effects, Photoshop, Animate, Premier) and DaVinci   

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

Hi, I'm attempting to build my first PC. The PC would really only be used for editing. I would be editing long videos and complicated timelines with some 4k Blackmagic Raw files and multiple Adobe applications open at the same time. I've attempted to build a PC on partpicker but I'm very much a newbie and have been watching a lot of videos but still don't know that much. Just wanted to know what I could be doing better with this.

look at cragslist for gpu, a 1660 ti for 600 isnt great. if you dont find anything worthwhile in the used market buy a 6600 xt instead of the 1660 ti.

 

 

why do you want the Crucial MX500?

 

im not sure if that cooler would be a good choice so il let others respond on that.
