Hi all,

I'm putting together a new build and wanted to get your opinion. This will be mostly for video/photo editing while still being able to play games on decent settings at 1080p. I'm still undecided on the monitor and just need a cheep keyboard and mouse to get by with. I will also be adding a hdd for bulk storage when I can afford it.

V300? Nope. If it's for mostly video and photo editing, you'll want more threads. Assuming your max budget is $850 or similar with monitor and keyboard+mouse?

What would you suggest that would be better?
