New PC Build (Which One Should I Go With?)

[harrow]

Hi Guys,

 

Would love your opinion on which system build to go with. I've already done a fair bit of research on hardware but could still use some more input. The intended purpose for the system will be for video editing (so I'm leaning towards the 5820K for the extra cores) but I will be gaming on it and I do love dat 4K, plus recording/editing music and general uni work stuff. I'm after speed and reliability, like if you want to suggest a part that would be more reliable or less likely to fail then please do. Was going with water cooling for cpu but I heard the fans on the Corsair H series are quite loud and you get a fair bit of dust on the radiator (going by one of Linus's videos) so I changed to air cooling...(oh and any other suggestion to keep pc cool would be awesome and dust free....I won't be O.C).

PS. I'm from Aus so that's why prices seem higher

....I tried to keep description short but feel free to ask any questions.

Yer i would get green (i7 5820k) 

[Suffokation]

Green?

Green = Better.

Just a side point, what site are you getting those prices from, they seem a to extreme even for Australia. BTW I'm from Australia too.

x99 Is probably the video editor's platform of choice at the moment so I'd probably go for the 5820k. I don't know if i'd write of the all in one cooler however. nepton 240M's have been getting decent reviews. and honestly when I run my computer silent, although the pump is the noisiest part of the build it only registers at 40 Db. (basicly quiet enough you can hear it if there's no other noise) edit: Corsair H100i here.

Hey Betabot, most of the prices came from pccasegear.com. I just took it from that site but I'll probably static ice it before I start hunting for parts .

 

Thanks for the info Slightlyjaded , yeah I was thinking the same thing. Sweet I'll read up on the Nepton 240M.

Just from the experience I had building mine Ramcity is pretty awesome for the memory parts ( ram, and storage). And pcbyte, although it get's good reviews has massive problems delivering cutting edge components, and will screw you around while waiting for a shipment to arrive.

Ahh cool, I'll check them out thanks . Yeah might stay away from pcbyte if they have dodgy components, don't wanna have to change parts later down the track.
