Editing PC $1000 AUD

[JoshPC]

My friend recently started getting into creating YouTube videos. Right now he's using a laptop to make his videos. He asked me to build him a editing PC that was good for editing/web browsing and light gaming (Minecraft). He uses an Elgato to capture his XBox footage.

He already has a mouse and microphone as well as headphones.

Please include the PC as well as a monitor (IPS if you can) keyboard, windows 10 and DVD drive

Thanks

Looks like a good build, does 16 Gb make a difference when it comes to editing? Could I use 8GB and save some money.

16 gigs will help with editing... yes
