Posted July 30, 2014 AMD Build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nz4cGX $1237,68 OS https://www.g2a.com/windows-8-professional-32-64-bit-cd-key-global.html $18,56 TOTAL $1256,24 Working on Intel build now. I will edit it in here. EDIT INTEL Build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CzQrRB $1344,67 OS https://www.g2a.com/windows-8-professional-32-64-bit-cd-key-global.html $18,56 TOTAL $1363,23 I dont work in Sony Vegas Pro but I found that it can use OpenCL and also Open CUDA acceleration. In AMD build you can get more performance from GPU with not so great CPU and in intel build you got very good CPU but less performance with GPU.

I'd go for the AMD build if you want some better all around performance, but for a pure editing rig, the Intel build is to way to go. On the side note, however, you should be able to choose what monitor, headphones and other peripherals yourself (recommendations welcome), as they're more or so pure personal preference (imo).

Posted July 30, 2014 personal i would like a 1080p monitor with an hdmi port and headphones just have to have overall good sound quality and have to be analog but i don't know too much about either I picked you 1200p (16:10) IPS monitor because it is better for work compared to 1080p (16:9). But it is personal preference. 1080p are cheaper and it allows you to add better GPU for example. Also I picked you Headphones I have because I am really happy with them but that is also personal preference (They are really good, just look at some reviews here on LTT forum). So feel free to pick whatever suits you best in that price range and you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be in the price range, and doesn't allow headphones and pushed the budget. Sacrifices even more on the GPU as well, but the CPU is top notch. Again, I agree with WereCat's earlier two builds, http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nz4cGX and http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CzQrRB. Intel for pure editing, AMD for all around. You can save money by buying the cheapest 1080p monitor if that's all you like, such as the Acer one I used in the 4930K build I linked. But a larger monitor resolution and ratio is better for workspace. Headphones, monitor and case are all personal preference, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets say that in 2-3 years you will want to get some extra performance. You dont have to go and get new parts. You have headroom to OC then. Also 'K' CPUs got slightly better out of the box performance than non 'K' CPUs. Example i7 4790 vs i7 4790k 3,6GHz - turbo 4,0GHz vs 4,0GHz - turbo 4,4GHz That is 0,4GHz difference which is quite a lot if you consider out of the box performance.

If your machine needs to run 24/7 and you want to keep it cool then xeon makes sense. Of course there is no point going Xeon with your budget and i7 is definitely better option. 4 core xeon vs 4 core i7.. i7 wins (price/performance). Unless you want to go at least 6 core xeon then prepare your wallet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 30, 2014 i would buy an i5 instead and go for a better gpu like a gtx 760, because of that you can render faster, if you use Gpu Acceleration For gaming yes. For editing/rendering/professional work maybe not as much. I would even go as far to say go with a 2011 chip but the 4790 presents an incredible value at the mainstream desktop market.

Posted July 31, 2014 but a GPU is much faster than a CPU, so you can render even faster with a better GPU With professional work processing power is driven from more. In a lot of cases some software titles will not utilize graphic processing very strongly or at all. Having a strong i7 is pretty much the bread and butter for people who do professional work. Sony Vegas does utilize GPU acceleration however when it comes to rendering CPU performance to my knowledge is more important and hyper threading can be used with professional work versus games which don't as much.
