Hi people, I'm building a gaming pc in the budget of $2500. The computer needs to be able to edit videos for YouTube. I want to run a single 1440p monitor and I don't need a keyboard or mouse becuase I can find them. If you can help or direct me to someone who can help thanks!

I'll make a list in a little bit - but something along the lines of two GTX970s, a i7-4790k and 16GB of Ram. Then use the rest on a good (G-Sync maybe?) Monitor and storage/cooling solution.
