Editing Pc ($1500 Budget)

Hey guys,

I'm building a editing pc with a $1500 budget (Give or take $200-300) but that includes 2 ASUS VG248QE 144Hz monitors bringing my budget down to $1000. If you have any other monitor recommendations let me know.

I would like to run an AMD processor (Due to personal preference), which will be watercooled, any other parts I have chosen are linked: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/tnMByc

As I said I have a $1000 budget($200-300) extra if needed. Any recommendations are appreciated.

For the love of god. Get the H105 and not the H100i. H100i is prone to leaking. Also, why not consider the newly released FX 9000 CPUs?

 

You are missing storage (other than the SSD) and you are in need of a Power supply - unless you already have these.

 

For an editing PC you also have no graphics card.

• NCASE M1 • i5-12600kf • RTX 4060Ti FE • Z690M-ITX • SF600 • NH-L9x65 Chromax • LPX 32GB

Considering I own an H100i, along with a lot of other forum members, can you produce some grounded evidence that they are prone to leaking?

Well I've had it happen to me for starters, I can send you my corsair damage claim if you want (they upgraded me to a H105). If you look around the web you'll find quite a lot more H100i leakings than other AIO coolers.

For editing, try getting 2 SSDs and RAID 0 them for projects that you are currently working on. You can load and render much faster. Also, have a regular HDD for archiving important data or projects that you can put on hold. And for the love of GOD get a good GPU before maxing out your ram, just get 4-8 gigs of 2400 first and a good to great GPU. This has happened to me before. To quote the great Zohan "I've seen this, I've done this, you don't want this"
